Add-in for Project Pro

[med111]

Hi,

How can we build an add-in for project professionnal 2007?

in fact, I want to make some customization to project professional
(for example changing a menu). so i create a add-in. then I will apply
the add-in on all Clients (Project Professional)

Have you written an addin to any other MS Office product?

Any choice of development platform (C++ / C# / VB / VBA)?

There are many ways of creating an addin. Download the SDK which has
examples and help file.

The simple starting point can be using Macros and assigning them to toolbar
button.

Using VB/VC/C# you can create addins which have better handling capability
than VBA Macros.

thank you for your replay.
But Which SDK I should download?
I have the Project 2007 SDK it has no example about Add-in

My bad. Didn't clarify earlier. You need to download Project 2003 SDK.
But before you download, you can have a look at
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa209889(office.11).aspx

This mechanism is common to 2003 and 2007 (only some API's will be different)

This will help you in creating application in Visual Basic 6.0

If you need further help let me know

If you use VS2005 you have to choose the ,,Shared Add-in" Template (New
Project/Other Project Types/Extensibility). After the Shared Add-in
Wizard starts select as Application Host (Step2) Microsoft Project.

That's it ;-)

examples... it will be very helpful.
I found some examples in access and excel but not in Project.
