Project_open event is not working properly

[Ralf@Adcuram]

Hello,

we are working on MS Project Server 2007 SP2.
Actually I try to develop our own customized environment with special
enterprise fields, views and so on. Everything is placed in the enterprise
global file and is working fine.

Finally I do want to create a toolbar which is created and populated with
small macros everytime a project is opened. therefore I do locate the code in
ThisProject-section of the enterprise global. Result is that the toolbar is
working fine but in some views columns are disappearing randomly.
When I move the code instead into the local Global.mpt the project_open
event is not starting the code but the views comeing from the enterprise
global are fine.

Any good ideas how this strange behaviour is able to be solved?

Regards,
Ralf

Instead of having the toolbar created whenever the global is opened, build
the toolbar and put it in the Enterprise global so it will always be
available.

Likewise, keep the views in the enterprise global as well.

Using the project open event is not as effective as it requires that
security settings be set to allow this, and as you have seen, it can be
difficult to get it to work exactly as you want. By putting these things
permanently in the enterprise global you will avoid these problems. THat is
what it is designed to do.
