HI everyone,

Here in my computer, I have MS Project 2000. I already add
MS Project 2000 reference in Visual Basic and do setup
program. My question is :

If user uses MS Project 98 in his computer, can my program
runs correctly when he run automation function?

Thanks ina advance.

Mas

Unfortunately, much of  your VB for project 2000 will not run with project
98. Microsoft changed the object model on the upgrade. The good news is that
Project 2000 and Project 2002 are compatible.

Regards,
Mark

Hello,

Contrary to all thebasd news I read: upgrading VBA from P98 to P2K does NOT
pose any major problems: a customer of mine migrated a 300+LOC application a
year ago, and right now anothe rcustomer is doing a similar migration
process.

What do you have to watch out for?

- Whatever Microsoft sais, DO NOT install P98 and P2K on the same computer.
- Files made in P2000, saved as P98, sometimes cannot be opened by VBA P2000
!
- Files made in P2000, saved as P98, generate a completely useless Private
Sub in the Project (useless but AFAIK harmless)
- There is definitely not a big change in the objects. To the contrary, one
of the only ones I noticed is
application.font reset=true
- When you use sendkeys you have to nbe aware that certain forms have
changed!

This taken into account, 99% of the procedures run flawlessly when copied
from p98 to P2000

Hi,

Provided you save the project as a Project 98 file, it should work. If not
they need to change the reference then recompile.
