MS Project tasks and .Net

[Shane]

I'm trying to import tasks from project 2000 using .Net
and oledb. I'm able to get the task but I would like to
use timescaledata method? Something like this in VBA

tsk1.timescaledata(startproj, startproj + 5 * 365, 5, 2)

The goal is to get the task cost per week.

Is there a way to do this in .Net?

Thanks for your help

Shane

Hi,

It's not .Net that's the limiting factor, but Project's oledb driver.
Project 2000 does not offer time phased data. Project 2002 does. However,
be aware that there is a bug for daily data: the start time of each day is
driven by the time of the first assignment, not midnight. 2003 has fixed
this problem.

So, to read timephased data buy at least one copy of 2002 or 2003.

Hi,

Project 2000's OLEDB driver doesn't support time phased data. Project 2002
does, but there is a bug with the daily figures: the start of each day is
driven by the task/resource/assignment start time, not midnight.
Project 2003 has fixed this bug.
