ExternalEditor plugin for MS Project?
I'm wondering if anyone's hacked together an External Editor plugin for Microsoft Project... From looking at the code for the Word, Excel, etc. plugins, it doesn't seem to be too complex. However- my knowledge of MSOffice COM scripting is even more tenuous than my knowledge of Python. As near as I can tell, Project seem to be a bit more of a unique beast than Word/Excel/Powerpoint. all clues appreciated- Larry

You dont need to do a "plugin". Just upload a project file with the MS project extension. Clicking on it should load it in MS Project... after that who knows... -- Andy McKay http://www.agmweb.ca

by George! you're right!! For some reason, the first time I tried this, I got an error message. Perhaps I had the path to the ms project executable wrong. Anyway-- now my most demanding user will have to find a new reason to gripe about Zope :-) thanks. Larry (who prefers to gripe about MS Project... ugh!)
