XML import in Project 2003

[jürgen luhr]

Hi,

I want to open an XML file in Project 2003, but in MS-Project I can't see
any project-items.
Could anybody help me what's wrong in the following file?

- <Project>
<Name>MyName</Name>
<Company>MyName GmbH</Company>
<Author>Ich</Author>
<ScheduleFromStart>1</ScheduleFromStart>
<StartDate>2005-03-01</StartDate>
<FinishDate>2005-07-13</FinishDate>
- <Tasks>
- <Task>
<UID>1974</UID>
<ID>1974</ID>
<Name>1974</Name>
<Start>2005-03-03</Start>
<Finish>2005-05-31</Finish>
<FixedCostAccrual>2</FixedCostAccrual>
<PercentComplete>0</PercentComplete>
<ConstraintType>2</ConstraintType>
</Task>
- <Task>
<UID>1975</UID>
<ID>1975</ID>
<Name>1975</Name>
<Start>2005-03-03</Start>
<Finish>2005-05-05</Finish>
<FixedCostAccrual>2</FixedCostAccrual>
<PercentComplete>0</PercentComplete>
<ConstraintType>2</ConstraintType>
</Task>
</Tasks>
</Project>


Thanx in advance

Jürgen

Hi,

In Project 2002 or 2003 save a simple project to xml and copy its schema.
You need most elements for a safe transfer. Start with a Project created
version then delete elements you don't want until it stops working, then go
back a step!

Hi Rod,

now it works fine. The problem was the ID.

Thanx a lot.
