Insert Project

[Stephan Schmahl]

Hi all,

does anybody know if a (sub-)project can be inserted by VBA-code (Menu
Insert/Project in MSP 2000)? And if yes, what would this code look like?

Thanks,
Stephan

Hi,

Record a macro of you inserting a project manually. Make sure you select the
options you want as you do it. The recorded code will give you your answer.

For any version of Project use public.project

Stephan,
The answer is "yes". The VBA method you want is called:
ConsolidateProjects Method
The full syntax and an example for the the ConsolidateProjects Method is
given in the VBA help file.

The menu for inserting projects used to be called "Consolidate Projects"
and I guess the VBA method name was never changed. I have been
frustrated many times by an obscure or hard to find method so I
understand your frustration.

Hope this helps.

John,

this was indeed very hard to find. Thank you so much!

Stephan,
You're welcome. If you thought that was hard to find, here's a challenge
for you. Find the method to expand all tasks in a consolidated file
