Running Macro from batch file 2

[Krusher]

Folks,
Is there a way to run "startup" macro in a shortcut for Project. It would be something similiar to the command-line switch /x for Microsoft Access. So, something like this, but with a switch for Project:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINPROJ.EXE" "c:\myprojectfile.mpp" /x "mymacro"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There are no command line startup switches that will do what you want. (There are several for Project Server but they refer to specific elements such as the server or logon password.)

You could create the macro within the project (or in Global.mpt) and then invoke it from the Project_Open event.

If you put the macro in Global.mpt then you have to make certain that everyone is using the same Global.mpt; if you put it in the project then you have to make certain that it is in every project.

Actually I found that Autpen worked best for me.

Sub Autpen()
BlahSub
InputBox ("Sub Done!")
End Sub

Hope that helps...
