Creating a task with AssignmentsSave and then viewing with AssignmentsGet

Hello,

I'm using Project Data Service (PDS) inside of a custom web application
for ASP .NET.

I want to enable the user (a Project Manager) to create a new task for
a project through the app and then refresh the page so that the user
gets an update of the task lists for the project.

I have Project Professional 2003 installed but the user does not.

I've noticed something peculiar during testing: when I (in the role of
a Project Manager) create and assign a task using AssignmentsSave, the
task won't show up in a refresh of the task list.

When I go to Project Professional and refresh the project, I can see
that the task has been created. When I save and publish information
for the project (still in Project Professional) and then go to the web
app, I see the task.

I suspected that it has something to do with a task being "proposed" or
"committed" so I went into the stored procedures behind PDS. In the
MSP_ASSIGNMENTS table, I tried changing values to replicate other tasks
which were showing up but it didn't work.

Is it by design that you shouldn't be able to fully manage a project
via PDS?

Thanks!

Tony
