Timescaledata within Microsoft project using VBA to pull Resource Usage Data - vba

I am just beginning a new project for my internship within the Project Management Office and they wanted me to look at some VBA within a script they run weekly to update each project on their Sharepoint server.
We are trying to get to the timephase data that shows up on resource usage view. We would ideally like to pull the right side of the screen that displays the total hours for each resource spread out over Mon - Friday.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! Please let me know if more detail here would help.

Accessing Google Calendar Events with MS Access Database

I wrote an access database several years ago that used VBA to pull events from my Google calendar and present them on a report. It worked great for a couple of years but then Google must have made a change and it stopped working. I didn't have time to figure it out at the time so I let it go but now I would like to see if I can get my app working again. I've been Googling all morning trying to figure this out but I'm just not finding anything that's helpful. I've looked thru the Google API website but it doesn't address VBA so I'm wondering if it's no longer supported???
So my question: is it still possible to retrieve Google calendar data from MS Access using VBA? If so, can anyone point me towards resources that explain how to do it?
Thanks for any help,
Chris
You should probably post the code you have. Also, consider recording a Macro in Excel, and modify it slightly to work in Access. The Macro Recorder can generate a lot of code for you (actually, you will probably end up with too much code). You can't record a Macro using Access, but the Excel object model and the Access object model are very similar.

TFS Query for Displaying How Long Tasks Take To Go From Created to Closed

TFS 2015 Update 3
How can I create a TFS query that will display a list of tasks and how long it took for the task to go from created to closed? Maybe I will need to create an Excel report for this? Or to export the report I have to Excel and then add formulas there? I would prefer to not have to add formulas in Excel, but it's okay if I do.
Here is what I have so far:
There is no this kind of work item query will directly return the actual time taken for a Task from active to closed.
Your workaround extracting the data to Excel to analyse works perfect. I thins this is the simplest way to achieve what you want.
Moreover, you could also query the work item history with the TFS API and check the times tamps on when the state transitions occurred.

Can BO dashboard be created from WebI report?

I need to create a dashboard using my webi report. Can this be achievable? If so, how?
Thanks in Advance
Niki
I tried this a few months back, while we primarily create Desktop Intelligence reports we have started to create WebI reports with the aim of creating dashboards with some of them.
We are running BOE XI3.1.
Here is a link to a blog which is one of the couple of blogs that I read when doing it.
Basically, you would right-click on the table in WebI and select publish block, you then follow the publish content prompts and when completed in the Web Services pane (if not visible, there is a Web Services checkbox in the top-right of the window) where you can get the Web Service URL that you can then use as a datasource within Xcelsius.
The WebI report I was playing with worked and I was able to get the data in Xcelsius.

SharePoint 2010 Workflow

We have Oracle 11g base HR System. Now our requirement is to make some workflow on SharePoint 2010. So we comeup to the decission that we will make webpart to insert, update and retrive records from Oracle and then we will start workflow on that.
So my question was, is it possible to start workflow without is list or document library. If yes than how can I get some idea on that. Some URL where I can find more details.
Kindly let me know if I am going in wrong direction. Please help on that.
You can have site level workflows in SharePoint 2010 which can run without list or a library.
See:
http://www.sharepointbriefing.com/spcode/article.php/3910746/Using-SiteLevel-Workflows-in-SharePoint-2010.htm
However, there is not much information available in the question to evaluate weather its the right option or not. It depends on what is the workflow requirement etc.

Extracting all List Content from multiple Lists from a Site Collection from a SharePoint 2010 Farm

i am a Sharepoint administrator of a small farm. One of our solution provider has created a huge amount of WebSites at an SharePoint 2010 that have a hierachialy order. And every WebSite has a Custom list with the name "User. Now i want to extract from every WebSite this list into one csv file. The best would be to also extract the Name of the WebSite directly as a new column.
I understand that i have to use the SPSiteDataQuery Class but i am new to developing for sharepoint so i am not sure where to start. Also i would like to have it to run weekly, like some kind of service.
I should note that i have some knowledge in c#
Can someone help me please ?
MG,
Using SharePoint Timer Job you can execute you code weekly base then fetch User data from all webs.
