Retrieving Project-Level attributes

[Simon Ansell]

Hi

I am wanting to retrieve 'project-level' formats for a
project so that they can be reapplied when next creating a
project (all within VBA - the task info is being imported
into MS Project each time from an external source).
By 'project-level' I mean such things as:

- Ganttchart timescales (middle tier, bottom tier etc)
- User-defined Ganttchart Barstyles.

I can't see any properties that return these values - all
there seems to be are some methods to SET some of them.

Any suggestions on where I can find some/all of these
attributes ? At this stage I am still working with files
(MPP) - but I don't rule out moving to a database in the
future if it would help.

Thks
SIMON A

Hi Simon,

The object you are looking for is the VIEW
It can be moved, deleted etc. through the organizer
From a file you move the view into the Global.mpt
Then you can move it into your new file
Lookup the OrganizerMoveItem method.
