Description

Determines whether the specified Globe Document (*.3dd) is a valid globe document and can be loaded into the GlobeControl. The method verifies the file exists and verifies the file internals conform to an expected storage format. The method does not read and validate the entire contents of the file; use the Load3dFile to do this.
