I am using Solidworks API in VC++ 6.0. How can I get the parts' names in an assembly file? I could find there are some functions like "getComponents"... but not sure whether they are the correct ones I should use.
Thanks!

There is an example in the API help that shows exactly how to do this.
I use VB not C++, so you will have to translate, but here is the The following shoud do it:
- use GetComponents
- cycle through each component in the groups of components
- if you want to "work" the the modeldoc object of the component, then you can use component2.getmodeldoc or activatedoc or opendoc
