How to integrate MS Projects 2003 with my application

[Paul Piper]

I would like to insert a column into MS Projects with "New" and "Edit" in
each cell so that when the user clicks "New" the user will be taken to a
corresponding part of my website. The user would then update the form on the
web page and this would update the cell in MS Project.

Is this possible? How would I go about doing this?

Getting out to your website is easy, getting back it the hard part.
To leave the Project File, all you will need is a hyperlink to a webpage.
You can even have a hperlink that is devined by a formala in project. As
such, this will allow you Post capability to feed information to your webpage.

I have to think about how to get you back with the updated information on
the form.

Thanks for replying,

I've been pondering over this for a few days now. I will look into the
formula hyperlink idea.

If you find out how to get the updated information back into MS Project
please let me know.

Actually at the moment I've been asked to allow the user to click on the
cell in MS Project (which would be the hyperlink) to connect to the
corresponding page of our website (prefer the user not to have to sign in to
the website however it looks like they would have to) and then add, edit or
delete a form which would update the corresponding cell in MS Project which
totals the number of forms in the website.

If I manage to do this I imagine I would have to do all sorts of other
things. i was thinking I would have to download MS Project SDK.
