PDS Permissions
The following table lists the global permissions that the Project Data Service (PDS) can access.
The PermissionCheck method verifies whether a user has a specific permission for Microsoft Office Project Server 2003, Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003, Microsoft Office Project Web Access 2003, or Microsoft Windows SharePoint® Services.
Note The list of ASP pages in the following table does not show the included pages. For example, for Permission ID 203 (PERMISSION_TASKS_DELEGATE), the Tasks/DelegatePage.asp and Tasks/TaskPage.asp both include Tasks/TasksPage_svr.asp file, where the PERMISSION_TASKS_DELEGATE check is actually made. If you need to find all .asp files where a particular permission is checked, check for the constant name using an editor that searches in subdirectories, such as the Find in Files feature of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.
For a sample file that has the following constant names defined, Constants.bas in Project 2003: Project Renamer PDS Extender is available from the Microsoft Download Center.
