Project VBA Question

[Julio Baixauli]

Hi.

In VBA for MS Project, the function TimescaleEdit is used to change the
settings of the timescale:

Dim percentage
percentage=100 '100%
TimescaleEdit Enlarge:=percentage

I would like to know the function I have to use to get the actual
Timescale_Enlarge setting. I was looking for it long time, but I have not
found it.

Thankyou!

Hi,

AFAIK Timescaleedit is (as so many methods in Project VBA) "write only". You
cannot read these properties.

Jan is correct. Many of the elements of the user interface can be set but
not read.
Set it the way you want.

Thank you Mike. I'm going to post the question in developer newsgroup.

Thank you, Jack and Jan. I've posted the question in developers group, we can
continue this post there.

Jack, the way I want to change the Timescale Enlarge setting is increase it
in 10% each time the macro is executed. So, if the actual Enlarge is 100%, I
would like to set it to 110%... Any idea? Thank you!

Julio.

As I said, all you can do is set the value.
You could set it at 100% to begin with and then go on from there, but you
will never be able to know what the original state was.
You could use the zoom function...
