create a list of all mesh in SIM file (instead of a FEM file)

Does anyone know how to create a list of all mesh names from the SIM File.

I found this code here and it work great on a FEM file, but can't get it to work inside a Sim File.

How can I get the "GetMeshCollectors to work with a SimPart instead

Sub Main()

Dim theSession As Session = Session.GetSession()
Dim lw As ListingWindow = theSession.ListingWindow
lw.Open()

Dim femPart As CAE.FemPart
femPart = CType(theSession.Parts.BaseWork, CAE.FemPart)

For Each theMeshCollector As CAE.MeshCollector In femPart.BaseFEModel.MeshManager.GetMeshCollectors
For Each theMesh As CAE.Mesh In theMeshCollector.GetMeshes
lw.WriteLine(" name: " & theMesh.Name)
Next
Next
End Sub

I do no thing you can directly as the meshcollector() "belongs" to the FEM. But you should be able to access which FEMs are "attached" to the sim

Dim theSimPart As NXOpen.CAE.SimPart = theSession.Parts.BaseWork
Dim femPart As NXOpen.CAE.BaseFemPart = theSimPart.FemPart

Thanks
