MS Project - object returning whether a task has subtasks?

[smooveb]

I ask because I'm performing calculations on certain fields that already rollup on their own. Therefore, performing operations on tasks at the lowest level is no problem, but performing calculations on parent tasks gives the application issues. Duration is a field that can be used as an example - easy to change the children, not easy to change the parent.

Any thoughts? Perhaps Skip has an idea on this? I thought i could use outlinelevel to my advantage, but seems like it might be tricky...

smooveb,

I am at a loss since I don't have MS Project.

But it would seem to me that with a hierarchical structure, you could "look down" and "see" a task collection, the absence of which would imply that you are at the lowest scheduling level for assigning granular data like Start/Finish/Duration, while higher summary-level tasks derive those values from their children.

Am I making sense?

How about

MyTask.OutlineChildren.Count=0
