How to call a Macro from dos prompt?

[g_andrey]

Does anyone know how to call a project'03 macro from a dos prompt? I do not
wish to use the AutoOpen(), but would like to kick off a macro, from a
scheduler, from a dos prompt.

Thanks in advance,
Andrey.

Don't think you can Andrey, unless there is some undocumented hack around
somewhere.

Your best bet is to write an external code module that references the MS
Project object model, sequencially opens the projects you wish to process and
executes the code for the project.

You could use VB6 or .Net for this, VB6 is the more natural language for
this purpose, though it is no longer supported by Microsoft.

With VBA the auto open event is the only solution I'm afraid. What reason is
there for not using it?
