Automating more than one instance of MS Project ?

J

J.Simpson

Hi,

I am writing a .NET/C# ervice that uses the COM interop layer to automate MS Project. If I have just one thread doing the automation, everything works fine. When I try to spin up multiple threads (doing the same work) - I get all sorts of errors (nasty looking HRESULTS etc...)

I seems that I can only have one thread driving MS Project automation at once - does anybody know of a way to work multiple threads & automation?

Thanks,

James
