TMGR: Fields Not Available Through Automation for Summary Task

MORE INFORMATION

When working with a collection of tasks from Team Manager through OLE Automation, certain task fields will not be available at the summary task level. Those fields are:

   Conflict
   Deadline
   EarliestStart
   PeopleAssigned
   Priority
   Recurring
   StartonEarliestStart
				

These fields are not available because, for example, summary tasks cannot have people assigned to them; therefore, the People Assigned field is not available.

When working with a Tasks collection that may contain summary tasks, you can use the following code to skip over summary task when accessing these fields:

   ' Where oTask is a task object.
   If Not oTask.Summary then       ' Checks to see if task is a summary
                                   ' task.
      MsgBox oTask.PeopleAssigned
   End If
