Project Server 2003 and pre-2003 Office

[Tony Murray]

Hi all

Does anyone have a definitive statement about what functionality is missing
or what issues might occur if you run Project Server 2003 with pre-2003
versions of Project Professional and Outlook?

Hi Tony,

What version are you running?
You can use Project 2002 to publish projects in PS03, but you are loosing
the collaboration funcitonality of 2003.

Thanks Marc

We are using 2002 on the clients.

Tony, that should be fine. Please note that you will need to enable the
"Publish with Project 2002" under the PWA > Admin > Server Configuration >
under the "Select the features that you want to make available to users in
Project Web Access" you have to enable the "connect to Project Server using
Microsoft Project 2002".

You should also be able to use your Outlook to transfer your tasks into your
calender.
I hope this helps
