Hi There,

I need some advice on the following:

I have a InfoPath 2003 Form. Inside of that form i would like to have a
button which creates a MS Project Object and fills in some content of my
form. How can i control Project from within Infopath ? Right now the only
thing i can use is the MS Skrip Editor. Is it possible to instantiate the
Project-dll there and create an Application like i can do from Excel ??

Thanks for any advice,
Oliver

If you can automate MS Project using either VBScript or JScript, then yes,
you can do what you want to do. It is best to repost your question in the MS
Project newsgroup, since people there know more about automating MS Project
than we do. Reformulate your question and ask if someone has a code sample on
how to automate MS Project using VBScript. Do not mention InfoPath in your
question, since they'll refer you back to this newsgroup and you'll be again
back at square one. :) If you then need help to alter the VBScript code for
use in InfoPath, you can post your questions here.
