I'm trying to use Microsoft Project's PSI web references to update certain
Assignment fields on our project database. Everything is going well so
far... except for the ASSN_NOTES field.
In the overview for PSI page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms504195.aspx, if you read down the
page you will get to a section on things PSI CAN'T DO, and a bullet point of
that section is this:
Changing the content of TASK_NOTES. The PSI can read only the text part of
the task notes which are .rtf binary data. However, you can edit assignment
notes (ASSN_NOTES), which are text data. The Reporting database does not
include task or assignment notes.
The part of that statement tells me I should be able to edit assignment
notes... but how? If you actually click on the ASS_NOTES field link in that
bullet point you will see that it is a read-only field. Could somebody
please tell what web service to use to edit this note field? I've tried the
WebSvcProject.ProjectDataSet.AssignmentRow and
WebSvcStatusing.ProjectDataSet.AssignmentRow so far... both have read-only
for that field. Again, I have been sucessful updateing % complete and other
Assignment fields... but NOTES is giving me a huge problem.
And yes, I've gone through the steps to Login to the server before trying to
do anything with the project. I based those procedures off the most recent
Microsoft Project SDK.
Please let me know if I can provide any additional information that might
help.
