TaskDependency Object, TaskDependencies Collection Object

Task TaskDependencies TaskDependency

Represents the link type and link lag information between two tasks.

Using the TaskDependency Object

Use TaskDependencies(Index), where Index is the dependency index, to return a single TaskDependency object. The following example adds 1.5 days of lag to the link between the specified task and the predecessor specified in its first task dependency.

ActiveProject.Tasks("Draft Initial Business Case").TaskDependencies(1).Lag = "1.5d"

Using the TaskDependencies Collection

Use the TaskDependencies property to return a TaskDependencies collection. The following example examines each predecessor for the specified task and brings up a message for each that has a priority of "High" or better.

Dim TaskDep As TaskDependency

For Each TaskDep In ActiveProject.Tasks("Write Requirements Brief").TaskDependencies
    If TaskDep.From.Priority > 500 Then
        MsgBox "Task #" & TaskDep.From.ID & " (" & TaskDep.From.Name & ") " & _
            "has a priority higher than medium."
    End If
Next TaskDep

Use the Add method to add a TaskDependency object to the TaskDependencies collection. The following example links "Preliminary Research & Approval" as a predecessor to "Draft Initial Business Case" in a finish-to-start relationship.

ActiveProject.Tasks("Draft Initial Business Case").TaskDependencies.Add ActiveProject.Tasks("Preliminary Research & Approval"), pjFinishToStart
