Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi,
I’ve written a macro that will automatically check one value of a cell and according to it will change a value of another cell.
I ran into a problem when I wanted to move between two files (a master gantt file). Is there a VBA function that enables MS-Project to be able to move from a cell in one file to a cell in another file? or maybe I can hyperlink two activities from two different files?

Thanks,
Assaf.

Set ProjAppl = CreateObject("MSProject.Application")

Title = "Please Select Microsoft Project File"
fname = Application.GetOpenFilename("Microsoft Project Files (*.mpp), *.mpp", , Title)

ProjAppl.FileOpen fname, ReadOnly:=False, FormatID:="MSProject.MPP"
Set aProj = ProjAppl.ActiveProject

’now open a seccond project
Title = "Please Select Microsoft Project File"
fname = Application.GetOpenFilename("Microsoft Project Files (*.mpp), *.mpp", , Title)

ProjAppl.FileOpen fname, ReadOnly:=False, FormatID:="MSProject.MPP"


Set bProj = ProjAppl.ActiveProject

Now you habe aProj.xxx
and bProj.xxx
