.NET GetEnv not working

[Aftertouch]

Hello all,

 

I have a EnvironmentVariable that is called "ACTIEVEGROEP"... some company history....

 

When i type in AutoCAD:

 

(getenv "ACTIEVEGROEP")

It returns one of the following strings:"AL" "AB" "AO" these can be set by the user.

 

       [system.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity]
       [DllImport("accore.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
       private static extern int acedGetEnv(string envName, StringBuilder result);

                           const int maxResultLength = 1024;
                           StringBuilder sbActieveGroep = new StringBuilder(maxResultLength);
                           string actieveGroep = acedGetEnv("ACTIEVEGROEP", sbActieveGroep).ToString();
                           ed.WriteMessage("Actieve groep: {0}\n", actieveGroep);

 

But when try to get this returned in my .NET code, it returns 5100...

 

I cannot solve this, any ideas???
