All, Okay, maybe not the clearest email I've ever written!
See the attached image: Here I have loaded a single block out of a multi-block dataset. It is the 24th block in the dataset. It was assigned the block_ID 101 at creation (we separate different blocks into different number ranges) So, it is shown in the Spreadsheet view as Block Number 25 (24+1) However, I need the Block_Name of this block. The block name is stored under: Input.GetBlock(0).GetMetaData(23).Get(vtk.vtkCompositeDataSet.NAME()) (23=24-1) In order to retrieve the name, I need to find the Block Number 25 (and subtract 2 from it). I have been unable to find this block_number. I can't count blocks to find out the block_number, because my Programmable filter only has this 1 block in it. So, does anyone know where this "Block Number" is stored? I'm wishing at this point that the Exodus reader had stored the block names in a dictionary with BlockID (ObjectID) as the key - then I could find the name. Any clues on how to determine the Block Number? Thanks Dennis
