The Construct method tells Voxler which command to create. The Construct method is accessed from the CommandApi object. The Open type allows the Voxler program to open existing VOXB file in the viewer window or data file in the worksheet window. This is similar to the File | Open command.
The Construct method must be used in combination with the Option method and the Do or DoOnce method to create an object.

Example
This example opens the Helens (ContourMap) example file.
Sub Main
'Declares VoxlerApp as an object
Dim VoxlerApp As Object
'Creates an instance of the Voxler application object
'and assigns it to the variable named "VoxlerApp"
Set VoxlerApp = CreateObject("Voxler.Application")
Set VoxlerApp = GetObject(,"Voxler.Application")
'Make Voxler visible
VoxlerApp.Visible = True
'Access CommandApi
Set CommandApi = VoxlerApp.CommandApi
'Open an existing file
CommandApi.Construct ("Open")
CommandApi.Option ("Path", VoxlerApp.Path+"\Samples\Helens (ContourMap).voxb")
CommandApi.DoOnce()
End Sub
