axlDBAltOrigin

I am attempting to using axlDBAltOrigin to eventually extract the X and Y coordinates of a components origin which is selected by a mouse click. After looking thru example code and documentation, my attempt is still incorrect. Would someone be willing to offer a beginner advice as to what I am doing wrong? Thank you. The code: axlClearSelSet() axlSetFindFilter( ?enabled list("noall" "Components") ?onButtons list("Components") ) axlSelect( ?groupMode nil ?prompt "Please Select Component" ) sym = axlGetSelSet() axlShowObject(axlGetSelSet()) comp_origin = axlDBAltOrigin('origin sym) xcoord = car( comp_origin) ycoord = cadr( comp_origin) axlMsgPut("X location is %s", xcoord) axlMsgPut("Y location is %s", ycoord)
