GetObjectInfo gives you qualifying information about the objects within the livelink system for eg the subtype of the documents.The idea being you ask the system,what can you tell me about 25014.Return it will say it is a subtype=144.Then you say a ha if it is a subtype=144 I can look at the versions info by ListVersions or if you are interested only in the currentversion LL_GetVersionInfo.For a versionable object ,For example a document subtype is 144.It is populated from DVERSDATA.If you wanted to get the mime typeyou would have to pass in the volumeid and objectid in a ListVersions call.This will return a RecArray containing all the versions information.Each of these records will have the mimetype of the object in question.This is the information you get when you go thru the GUI and hit specific for an object.

If you would rather show me thru JAVA I can post you a snippet.
