Q115244

• Microsoft Project for Windows, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Project, when you use either the LinkPredecessors or LinkSuccessors method in a Visual Basic, Applications Edition, module, you may receive a general protection (GP) fault.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when you use the Tasks collection as the Tasks argument without indicating a particular task (that is, the index number is not provided).

The "Tasks" parameter requires an indexed object.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

      Sub Test()

          For i = 1 to (T - 1)
              ActiveProject.Tasks(4).LinkPredecessors Tasks:=T
          Next i
      End Sub 

3. From the Tools menu, select Macros. Find and select Test Macro, and choose Run.
