How to I know that the active project has changed?

Does somebody know how I can find out from an AddIn program that the active
project changed?

How do I get this event?

Thanks

Hi,

No need for an event. Use:
ActiveProject.Name If you store the original name in a string, it's easy to
check when you need to.

Unfortunately it's not so easy.

I have to read property values from the active project whenever the user
changes the project.

I display a form parallel to the msproject plan which shows values which are
correlated to the active project!

I do not know if there is an even which handles this, however you could set
some variable (foo) to activeproject.name when you start. Then check to to
see if activeproject.name = foo when you need to know if it changed.
