Automatically Deleting Project Professional 2007 Cache

[Sebastián Armas]

Hello:

Is there a way to automatically deleting Project Professional 2007 Cache
(both protected and unprotected projects) on the app startup?

I've tried to create a macro, but the CleanupCache VBA command hasn't got
further options.

Thanks in advance for your kind reply,

It is not possible using vba. One of my client they wrote a batch file that
they manully delete the cache folder. Doing so you also risk of loosing the
information of checkedout files that are still waiting to be checked-in.

Thanks for your kind reply. Indeed, the only time I'd like to do this is at
the app first startup on any given day; otherwise you'd indeed loose some
data.

Is there anyway to get a copy that batch file?

Thanks in advance,

This is a simple batch file of DOS commands. You can tie it to a shortcut on
the desktop. For Windows Vista it would like:

cd appdata\roaming\microsoft\ms project
del *.*

You could then have the same bat file call WinProj.exe by changing to the
application path before you make the winproj call.
