Information about the Project Data Service reference for Project Server 2003
This article describes how to use the PDS API to enable client
program access to Project Server 2003 portfolio data. Client programs
can programmatically log on to Project Server 2003 and can use SOAP to call PDS API methods. The PDS implements a SOAP listener.
The SOAP listener receives method calls in XML
format and returns an XML response.

Information about how to use the Project Data Service
This article contains sample programs that work with both
Project Server 2003 and Microsoft Project Server 2002. The programs provide
examples of how to log on to Microsoft Project Server and how to call the
Project Data Service (PDS) by using SOAP. The PDS Test and the PDSTest.NET
tools are generic programs that can call the PDS native or can call extension
methods. The sample code helps a developer to see how to call the PDS by using
Microsoft Visual Basic® 6 and the SOAP toolkit, and by using Microsoft
Visual C#®, Microsoft .NET, and the .NET Framework.

Information about the PDS and Microsoft Project Server security architecture
This article gives
developers the background and the details of the Project Server 2003
security architecture, and explains the role of the Project Data Service (PDS)
in accessing project data. The developer of a client solution that accesses
data from Microsoft Project Server database views should use this information
as the basis for maintaining data security.
