Importing dates from Project to Outlook

[Anne]

Is there a way to import dates from Project Standard 2003 to Outlook 2003?

Hello Anne,

Not automatically, no. However, you can export information from
Project and then import that information into Outlook.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi Julie.

Thanks for your response. I see to export from Project and import to
Outlook but what file type do I use? I keep reading about Project
Server...do I need some sort of plug in to do this?

Thanks.

Anne

Hello Anne,

I believe you can import Excel files into Outlook as well as CSV files.
Project will export to either file type.

You can do a manual export/import from Project without Project Server. The
"Outlook Add-in" you have most likely seen referenced works with Project
Server. If you have Project Server installed and have questions about the
add-in try posting to the Server newsgroup.

The tiny url below is a link to a posting available on google groups
detailing steps to export and import the information from Project to outlook.
It also contains some code (not written by me or tested) that may help.
