= SYMPTOMS =

In Microsoft Project, when you turn on the Macro recorder, and you choose the Copy Picture button from the Standard toolbar, the EditCopyPicture method may be recorded without the object or forPrinter arguments.

= CAUSE =

This behavior occurs because both the object and the forPrinter argument for the EditCopyPicture method are optional, and are not recorded unless you select an option other than the default.

For example, when you choose the Copy Picture button from the Standard toolbar while the macro recorder is running, and you select the For Screen option, the forPrinter argument is not recorded with the EditCopyPicture method.

Note that when you record this same procedure in Microsoft Project for Windows, both the option argument and the forPrinter arguments are recorded. However, if you run the macro recorded in Microsoft Project for the Macintosh in Microsoft Project for Windows or vice versa, the macro runs correctly.

Note that although you do not need to edit the recorded macro in this case to make it behave any differently, you can add the arguments to the macro without causing any difference in performance:

Sub Copy_Picture EditCopyPicture object:=False, forPrinter:=False End Sub
