Example
This example illustrates how it is possible to create an invalid entry in a lookup table. The first line correctly adds a new code to the second level of a two-level code mask. The second line, however, causes a problem in the lookup table because the appended code doesn't match the mask for the code; that is, it adds the new code at the third level of a two-level mask.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  Sub LookupTableProblem()
    Application.LookUpTableAdd pjCustomTaskOutlineCode1, Level:=2, Code:="Q"
    Application.LookUpTableAdd pjCustomTaskOutlineCode1, Level:=3, Code:="Z"
End Sub
