HRESULT LoadFlyLayer(

BSTR FlyURL,

BSTR ParentGroupID,

BSTR * GroupID)

Parameters

FlyURL

A full path name or a URL to the Fly file to load.

ParentGroupID

The Project Tree group in which to put the objects from the imported Fly file. If set to zero, the object is created under the root. The layer objects are put in a group with the name of the Fly file (e.g., for the file “C:\MyFly.fly”, a new group named “MyFly” is created), and maintain the same internal group hierarchy as the loaded file. You can obtain the GroupID by one of the following methods:

· Create the group using IProjectTree80.CreateGroup.

· Find the group, if you know the name, using IProjectTree80.FindItem.

· Traverse the Tree using IProjectTree80 methods such as GetNextItem.

Return Value

GroupID

The ID of the newly created group which contains the Fly object.

Exceptions

TE_E_INFOTREE_PARENTNOTGROUP	The group ID entered does not represent a valid group in the Project Tree.
TE_E_INFOTREE_ITEMNOTGROUP	The item entered is not a group and therefore cannot be used as a group.
TE_E_INFOTREE_CANTUSEROOT	Cannot use Tree root for this operation
TE_E_INFOTREE_ITEMISGROUP	Item ID is a group so an object cannot be retrieved.
