Needed: Methods/ properties to format MSProject

[CNJ-DotNet]

I have successfull written to MSProject from another
application. However I would like to format the MPP with
writing to the project. Do you know which properties and
or methods can be used to accomplish this. Primarily I
would like to automatically indent subtask items for
predefined Major tasks.

Thanks

Hi,

The quickest way to get started is to record some macros of you doing what
you want manually then tweaking from there. Don't record too much as the
format of recorded macros is poor. For example recorded macros typically
move the cursor then work off the selected cell. This is poor programming.
You need to learn to refer to specific tasks in a task collection ASAP and
use task objects etc. VBA help is good for this. There is also a
downloadable ebook for Project 98 VBA - get the link from
www.mvps.org/project/
