Trying to toggle Tools/Options/View/Show Summary Tasks

[G Lykos]

Greetings! Am stuck trying to create a macro to toggle the captioned switch
to facilitate switching summary task suppression on/off. Macro recording
for demand value is simple: OptionsView DisplaySummaryTasks:= False.
However, I have been unable to figure out how to read the current value of
Boolean property DisplaySummaryTasks so as to set it equal to NOT it.

Would appreciate help in figuring out how to read the current value, and/or
another way to accomplish this. Also, is there a way to create a toolbar
button and then assign the macro to it?

Thanks!
George

George,
No need to cross-post, those of us who normally respond check all
applicable newsgroups. Besides, this newsgroup is destined to go away
(sometime during the next ice age I think) because it has been replaced
with the more generic, microsoft.public.project.developer newsgroup.
