Hello,
I am having problems with something that should be very simple. I want to implement some VBA code to run during the Project_BeforeSave event and I experience the following:
- I create a new project plan.
- I add test code (just a msgbox) to the event handler for the corresponding Project object.
- I save the plan and the code fires as expected. I repeat this N times and it always works.
- I close Project.
- I re-open the same project plan as above.
- I save the plan (with or without changes made) and the event code does not fire. I open the VBA editor and the code is intact. No matter what I do now, the event code never fires again.
I have also tried implementing new code in the BeforeSave event after closing and re-opening (also tried other events) and nothing will get the events to fire again. It's as though I have to do something to wake up event handling
In each case, I am testing this with saving the plan as a .MPP file. In reality I need this to work in a Project Server 2003 environment, but I am trying to remove as many variables as possible to isolate the problem.
Furthermore, I really want to implement this code in the global.mpt file so that the event code would fire for any project plan. This is how it is advertised to work, but I have not been able to get past the problem above yet.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Mark

Hi Mark.
I think that you'll probably get a better response from the Project Developer Newsgroup: http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx dg=microsoft.public.project.developer&lang=en&cr=US. You should repost this question there.
