Hi all -
I am trying to develop a process to copy/paste groups of tasks within a project while maintaining predecessors & successors both internal to that group AND external to the group. For example, let's say I have a group of ten tasks that represent the work required to build inventory for a particular sku. These tasks are linked to each other, but also have predecessors external to this group (for example one generic "packing materials ordered" task). If I select the ten tasks and copy/paste them to reflect inventory build on a different sku, some of the predecessors are copied to the new group, but not all of them (e.g. the" packing materials ordered" task). As it stands, I then have to go back and manually check predecessors and successors and add any that are missing. . . a huge time suck.
Is there a way to automate this with some VBA code? I have done rudimentary VBA, but this is a little beyond me. I would be able to follow an example, but am coming up short as I try to figure this out.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
