It's not completely cleaned up, but it should be usable for you. Unfortunately for back-end type projects we don't always have time/resources to go back and polish the code. Good Luck. @Dennis, I sent you a copy directly. It’s not completely cleaned up, but it should be usable for you.

I believe I can tweak the CFC if I can just get past that part. Thanks. How did you modify the code for the new method of authentication?

It would be most appreciated. Any chance I could get a copy of the CFC you modified for the new BaseCamp API? It would be most appreciated.

It shows us hours over our predicted and colours from green (within estimate) to red (bad, over estimate!). It's first outing will be at our web production meeting this Monday. In to the future if it works then the next step is to post back in via Basecamp direct to the clients warning them that they are over hours.
