unexpected "beforetaskchange2" event

[Guido Karkosch]

Hi,

whenever a user tries to insert a new task in the project
plan, we want him to enter required fields in a separate
dialogbox. To do so, we want to pop up this dialogbox
initially when a new task is created. The problem is, that
the event does not happen when the user presses the ins
key or the menu entry for a new task. No, the event
happens AFTER the user has already entered data in a cell
and presses enter. This is to late and a side effect is,
that the edited cell cannot be updated by the
dialogbox/script.

Thanks in advance,
Guido

Why would you want to duplicate information and
functionality that is already part of the tool? When you
define enterprise custom fields which can be task
related, you can check a box that forces the user to fill
in the information before they can save the project to
the server.
