    Has anyone else here worked with the PDMWorks API?

    I'm doing some work with it now and have found it woefully lacking.

    It doesn't allow you to return a "Level" property for a document in the
    Vault..
    You're forced to manually output a CSV file and parse the data.

    All it will do for you is give a Boolean True/False via the "IsTopLevel"
    property.
    Not too helpful when you have assemblies more than 8 levels deep. :-(

    It doesn't make too much sense to me that the API doesn't return a
    critical property
    of documents in the Vault.

    It sure would be nice it SW would put some effort into the PDMWorks API
    and its documentation.
