readin data as XML

[snnsmsk]

Hi;
Is it possible to read tasks and other data from an project file as XML
format with visual studio 2008 (C#) but not using project server(PSI).

Thanks

HI,

Project 2003 (I think '03 was the first version) onwards can save projects
as xml files, so either have your users save copies as xml or open project
using automation and save a copy that way.

Yes, this is possible. As Rod says, you can export Project files to XML.

Consult http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb428843.aspx (XML
Schema References for Project) for a discussion of the schema and its
use.
