Select camera from active vieport

Let's say your active viewport is a camera view,
I was wondering how you select that camera from active viewport by scripting.
Thanks for any help.

(
curcam = try(getActiveCamera()) catch()
if curcam != undefined do select curcam
)

I don't know what you expecting from the script but it works with Corona Cameras. Create several Corona cameras in your scene, set one of them as active, open maxscript listener and run the script. In the maxscript listener you will see the name of the active camera.
