 Command Line arguments for Project

Hi All,
I am trying to open an ODBC project in Project 2000 by passing it command line
parameters. I can get it to open the project by passing it "\company"
right after the executable, but I can't seem to get it to recognize a UserID and
Password for the database , so that the project opens without loggin into the DB.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jeff Caraway

 Command Line arguments for Project
I don't have an answer to your problem, but I have one vaguely like it.

First, I can't find any command line documentation in the Project 98 Help or in the
Microsoft web site Project section.  Anyone have a clue where that can be located?

I am creating and InstallShield Installer that needs to launch an MS Project file
that installs VBA modules in the global template that interact with our COM
application.

When I send the Project executable path to the InstallShield shell function plus the
path to the file that I want to launch, I get the error message that I am missing
VBA32.dll

That DLL seems to be some mythological creature that doesn't exist on any of the
computers in the office, either Win95, Win98, or Win2000.  I am running Windows 98.
There are some hints on the web that it exists in a VB Setup Kit that I don't have or
that it is a MS Office DLL.  Is it so archaic that it has become almost extinct?

Has anyone else come up with this error trying to run MS Project 98 from the command
line -- missing VBA32.DLL?

Is there a (reputable) DLL endangered species menagerie somewhere where one can clone
this DLL?  Or perhaps I can use the installer to LOAD another DLL that has the same
functionality and will somehow miraculously substitute itself for the unhappily
extinct one?
