Getting custom prop / Surface Area through API

    How do I get the resolved value of a custom property through the API?
    I'm trying to grab the value for the surface area for a part through a
    macro (not a VB project).

    I can get the "value" of the custom prop just fine, but cant figure out
    how to get the resolved value.

    The CustomPropertyManager::Get2 function is not doing it for me, or
    maybe I just dont have the syntax right.

    Any help appreciated!

    Maybe you mean this?
    retval = ModelDoc2.GetCustomInfoValue ( configuration, FieldName )
