Project 2007

Do I need to save a version of Project2007 to a lower version in order to open it on Project2003 software? Can Project2007 open all other Project files?

RE: Project 2007

Hi Mike

Thanks for you question

It all depends on whether the 2003 application has service pack 3 installed. If it does, then you can open 2007 files directly with no difficulty.

If service pack 3 is not installed, then you will have to save it as a 2003 file.

2007 can indeed open all previous versions of prject

Hope this helps

Regards

Stephen


 

MS Project tip:

Keep constraining dates to a minimum

As far as possible avoid fixing the dates of your tasks. For example try to steer of clear dragging task bars in the Gantt chart to move them on the timeline or entering dates directly into the Start / Finish fields.

Date constraints such as these limit Microsoft Project's ability to automatically adjust your project whenever you add, remove or modify the duration of your tasks. Instead use the logic in your task dependencies that link your tasks to enable Project to calculate the start and finish dates for you.
