Some programming stuff...

[Attilio Gelosa]

Hy all,

I'm developing a solution with .NET 1.1 and Project 2003 and I have
some problems:

1) Inserting the starting and ending date of tasks, I obtain question
marks "?" in the duration... What can I do to eliminate questions
marks?

2) How can I define by code the max units percentage for a resource?

3) When I use "Tools" -> "Level resources...", is it possible to "mark"
some tasks so that it's not used during the optimization algorithm
(i.e. it isn't possible to change it in any way...)?

4) Where can I find good Doc about Project 2003 developing? Please, no
SDK... I already downloaded it...

Thank you for your help.

Attilio

Hi,

1) Firstly, Tasks with constrained dates require manual updating until
complete. Much better to set duration (no ? marks) and have links so Project
calculates your dates for you.

2) ActiveProject.Resources("My Resource").Maxunits=50

3) Set priority for a task to 1000 and it won't be moved by levelling
algorithm.

4) For VBA developing I've written the only book on Project VBA, see:
