OLE DB: CustomProperties

[DapperDanH]

Hello,
Is there a way to retrieve the customdocument properties of a .mpp file?

I am storing information within the mpp files custom document properties and
I would like to retrieve it using OLEDB. I have reviewed the documents for
OLE DB but do not see anywhere.

Anyone know a way to retrieve custom document properties using OLE DB?

Thanks,
Dan

Hi,

The built in project properties are in the Projects table, but you can't get
to custom properties. A better way to do this is to use custom fields in the
project and enter your values in the Project Summary task. These custom
fields can be read from the Tasks table looking at TaskUID=0

For any version of Project use public.project
For any version of Project Server use public. project.server
