How do I search multiple task names using the MS-Project VBA, given that I have multiple task names copied to clipboard and are divided in to array items by Split.
This code I have searches for one task at a time, giving out the task ID and task name. What I want to do is look for multiple task IDs in a single time.
Simply what I want to do is search the whole array x() in ActiveProject.Tasks to find matches.
Sub NameExample()
Dim t As Task
Dim x() As String
Dim y As String
Dim p As Variant
Dim q As String
Dim MyData As DataObject
Dim strClip As String
Set MyData = New DataObject
MyData.GetFromClipboard
p = MyData.GetText
x = Split(p, vbCrLf)
For Each t In ActiveProject.Tasks
If InStr(1, t.Name, x(0), 1) Then
y = y & vbCrLf & t.ID & ": " & t.Name
End If
Next t
If Len(y) = 0 Then
MsgBox "No tasks with the text "
Else
MsgBox y
End If
End Sub
Solved it!
Sub NameExample()
Dim t As Task
Dim x() As String
Dim p As String
Dim q As Variant
Dim MyData As DataObject
Dim strClip As String
Set MyData = New DataObject
MyData.GetFromClipboard
p = MyData.GetText
x = Split(p, vbCrLf)
For Each q In x
For Each t In ActiveProject.Tasks
If InStr(1, t.Name, q, 1) Then
y = y & vbCrLf & t.ID & ": " & t.Name
End If
Next t
Next q
If Len(y) = 0 Then
MsgBox "No tasks with the text "
Else
MsgBox y
End If
End Sub
