Project VBA Reference

[Glenn]

I open Project. I open the VBE using Alt+F11. I select Help
from the menu item. I would expect that I would get Project
specific VBA help listing the Project Object Model and reference
for all of the Properties, Events and Methods with the Object
model but it seems all I get is a bunch of VB specific junk that
isn't very helpful.

All I want to do is to insert data into a tasks fields using VBA.
Thanks for anyones help on these things.

Yes, it is broken. And Microsoft knows that. Here is the workaround.

Open VBE
From view menu pick Object Browser.
Select an object/method/property which is specific to project (activeproject
is a likely choice)
Hit F1. Help will open and it will be the Project VBA help.

This is the most reliable way of getting it to open correctly. I'm pretty
sure that I picked this up from Rod Gill.

Close Jack, I open the immediate window, type the word I want such as
Project then press F1. Make sure help is closed before doing this and it
opens up in the correct help file.

Well, I must have picked it up somewhere else. Maybe at least I got the F1
key from you
So, now we have two quick methods. Such a shame that simply choosing help
doesn't do it!
