Timescale Programming Unexpected Error

J

Joe Cletcher

Does anyone know what is causing the unexpected error. I receive an error
1004 (An unexpected error occurred with the method) when using the
"TimeScaleData" method to obtain the value entered in the task contour pane.
It occurs at the following line of code.

MyValue =
myProj.Tasks.UniqueID(MyTaskUniqueID).Assignments.UniqueID(MyTaskAssignmentUniqueID).TimeScaleData(BeginDate, _
EndDate,
PjAssignmentTimescaledData.pjAssignmentTimescaledWork, _
PjTimescaleUnit.pjTimescaleYears, 1).Item(1).Value

Some values are returned correctly, the begin date starts at 1/1/2005 and
ends at 1/1/2027 and the end date is 1 year later than the start date. All
values with begin dates greater than 2014 experience the error. The error
message appears randomly for dates between 2005 and 20015 for both
assignments (1st assignment is work in hours and the 2nd assignment is
material cost in $).

While not brief -- I have included a copy of the programming below.
