cad information

Is there any way to access the "cad information" with vb6 code?

    I need the CAD Transform


    I'm trying to match up the THEO hit points for various features to the CAD model outside of the PC-DMIS application. None of the coordinate system choices in the GetHit function put the points in the coordinate system the original model is in, so I need this transform to make that mapping.

    So far I've been able to get it via the Windows Automation Framework, but it's not the ideal solution since it requires navigating the window tree of the application and sending keyboard commands like Alt+V+O to pop open the window. Ideally, I could use the API since this information is clearly readily available.

    This would be a really helpful addition to the API.
