Look in the TaggedValue collection. Find a record with the GUID of your Parameter object, and BaseClass set to OPERATION_PARAMETER.

Hi david,
         I am using APIs for the addIn. i am not able to find the any such OPERATION_PARAMETER. Can u explain me in detail?

I think you'd have to be reading the database field (in t_taggedvalues) directly to see that value. Some add-ins read the database, so I thought I'd provide that info as well.

I think you just need to look for a tagged value with the owner set to the GUID of your operation. If nothing else works define a search and run it from your add-in.

Let me know if you get it.

Hi David,
   Dont mistake me. I am not clear with the concept of reading from the database. Is there any material for reading the values from DataBase?

EA has an underlying database. EAP files are MS Access else you run a SQL repository. Both can be read by simple Select statements. David is talking about tables in these databases. You can always run SQL in parallel to other EA COM API calls. You just have to figure out where your repository is located.

I got it.
Thanks David, thanks Thomas.

To get you started, open the EA documentation and take a look at the Repository.ConnectionString property.
