Retrieving Tip File from external program

Is there any way to retrieve the name of a tip file from an external part program? For instance I am in program A and I want it to look at program B and tell me what tip file is being used in that program. I have tried attaching the prgoram and using a getcommand, but to no avail.

  • For starters, you must be able to find that particular program in the PartPrograms collection (if you have more than two programs opened), so you know that you are searching the right program.

    I think tip changes are a modal command type, so in theory you'd parse the attached program for modal commands and check any modal commands for probe change/probe load until you find the one you are looking for.
