    Hi all

    I'm writing an addin for SW2007 SP5.0. Is there a way to detect if a file
    needs to be rebuilt?

    Thanks

    "ModifyNotify" event in PartDoc/AssemblyDoc/DrawingDoc objects marks
    when a file is altered. This does not necessarily mean a rebuild is
    required, though.

    Thanks,

    But if I have the structrure Drawing->Part or Drawing->Ass->Part and only
    the part is changed will this event still fire when I open the drawing?

    ModelDocExtension::NeedsRebuild

    This is a property, not an event. You will need to find a way to
    trigger checking this property.
