Thank you both so much for all the information and options. I think Andrew accidentally had a typo in his answer because I tried ValidationConfiguration but got the error that the method didn't exist when I tried to InvokeMethod on it. So thanks for clarifying that it should be ValidateConfiguration that gives me the functionality that I need.   Thank you both again. ... View more

Thanks I didn't see the .NET API help chm file. I was just using the object browser in Visual Studio based on the ClearSCADA.Client.dll XML comments. I thought your screenshots were something you did yourself so it inspired me to use docfx to generate a site from those XML comments for myself. Turns out I should've had the official documentation help file all along and just didn't find it!   Thanks for the explanations, I haven't delved into the ClearScada.Client.Advanced stuff much, most of what I do is all based on the DBObject or Connection classes. I'll dig into it more when I get back in the office but if anyone has an examples of what methods will return an ObjectDetails class or which classes implement the IObjectHierarchy interface that I can call that method I would greatly appreciate it.   Thanks again for all the help. ...

Thank you both so much for the replies but to be honest I'm still a little confused here. Is there a class that implements the interface IObjectHierarchy? With just the interface I have no idea how to implement that methods if I were to write my own class that implements the interface.   Also ObjectDetails looks like it only accepts a Stream in it's constructor, but I'm not seeing a way to Serialize a DBObject into a memory stream. When I tried to do it with BinaryFormatter it doesn't know how to do it. I'm assuming what I need to be doing is calling some other method that returns ObjectDetails rather than trying to instantiate it on its own but I'm not finding a method that does that.   //          // Summary:          //     Initializes a new instance of the ClearScada.Client.Advanced.ObjectDetails class.          //          // Parameters:          //   stream:          //     The stream.          public   ObjectDetails ( Stream  stream);   Is that web documentation in your screenshots @BevanWeiss something that is included in the documentation of GeoSCADA or something you generated yourself from the XML documentation?   Thanks again for any assistance. ...
