Converter
I have version 2002 and need to be able to at least view & preferably work with files from colleagues with version 2007, but the website I was taken to to download a converter said there wasn't one for 2002 - 2007.
Is it possible for me to open / work with these files & if so, how.
Thanks
RE: converter
Hi Lesley
Thank you for your question. I've checked the Microsoft site and it looks like there is no converter for Project 2002 to enable it to open Project 2007 files.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/project-help/project-2007-converter-information-HA001045020.aspx
The only answer I can see is for the Project 2007 user to save down to project 2000-2003 format. This will enable Project 2002 to to open and edit the file.
In Project 2007 some enhanced features will be lost but the file can still be edited and maintained.
I hope this helps. Project 2003 has a converter that lets it work with 07 files without the need for them to be saved down.
I hope this helps - sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
Kind regards,
Andrew

MS Project tip:Typing Links Between TasksIn the Entry table, use the Precessors column to type in links. Type the previous task's ID to link. To change the link, add FS (Finish-Start), FF (Finish-Finish), and so on, and + duration to add a Lag, or - duration for a Lead time. Example: for task 5, 4FS+1w ... task 4 preceeds task 5, finish to start, with a week lag between. |
