Hi everyone,
My question for today is about saving an MS Project 2003 file as MS Project 2002 file. Is that possible and how do I do it?
If anyone has an answer please let me know. I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hi Ak,

There is no "save as" to save a project 2003 file as
2002. The file formats are the same.

The following is information from Microsoft re: file
compatibility:

"The file format of Microsoft Office Project 2003,
Microsoft Project 2000, and Microsoft Project 2002 are
the same.
In Microsoft Project 2000 and Microsoft Project 2002, you
can open a project created in Microsoft Office Project
2003 and save it with any changes you make, and then open
it again in Microsoft Office Project 2003. Note, however,
that Microsoft Project 2000 and Microsoft Project 2002 do
not include all of the features found in Microsoft Office
Project 2003. Therefore, some information might not be
displayed when you open a project created in Microsoft
Office Project 2003 in Microsoft Project 2000 or
Microsoft Project 2002.

When you reopen the project in Microsoft Office Project
2003, all information will be displayed again. The
project will retain all of the Microsoft Project 2000 or
Microsoft Project 2002 information as long as you don't
save the project with a new name. When you save the
project with a different name, all Microsoft Project 2000
and Microsoft Project 2002 items are discarded.

Note Due to the addition of new features in Microsoft
Office Project 2003, it cannot save projects to Microsoft
Project Server 2002 without first making some minor
modifications to the database. To install scripts to
upgrade your Microsoft Project Server 2002 database, go
to the download center on TechNet."

Hope this helps.

Julie
