Hi Keith

Thanks for that important release

I've just made the download to my PC
I have dotProject installed and working

I would like to know how to make that IMPORTER works

Thanks for any help you can provide me

It works with the dotProject Backups Module. If you install this module into dotProject like any other, it should work.

Thanks a lot Keith

I've installed backup module and after that installed MS Project to dotProject Importer. I had to generate a XML version from .mpp file
and use that XML version in order to import to dotProject

The import was made and everything looks fine

Thanks again

So, the mpp file (MS Project) needs to be in xml format?
Is this correct? If you don't have MS Project, (which is why I am investigating dotProject) how do you get it in xml?

We receive files from other companies to view and we were hoping to not have to purchase MS Project (since we don't want to use MS Project for whatever reason you can imagine... )

I'm new to this whole project management thing. Please forgive for my lack of knowledge on this subject.
Thank you.

Hi Casey,
Great work. We are a small company and I'd be happy to give a donation if we can get this up and running.

I currently export the MSProject file as XML and get the Line 321 error on the import module. Divisible by zero problem.

Anyway, I did some sleuthing and it seems to read the dusrations correctly but for some reason not at that line.

Any idea how to fix this? The duration is in the Prjoect export but not correctly imported.

Thanks for your assistance, this tool has great potential and I hope we can add to it.

Thanks,
Andrew

Is there anyway for the import to put the task owner in Dotproject?

Hey Casey - any news on the updated module? I noticed in the forums you said it would be available soon but can't seem to find the update :-(

Thanks again for all you hard work :-)

Hi Keith

Only today I was able to look at that import in more details and as I've mentioned before it worked. The only thing that I would like to
confirm with you is that there are neither hours nor records related to Tasks Logs for the project that I've imported

Please, let me know if you have any clue why Tasks Logs were not imported

Thanks in advance

Andre

Do you mean Task Logs from Microsoft Project? I wasn't aware that you could attach logs.

I mean the hours booked on the .mpp as Actual Work.

I used the expression Task Logs because that name is where "Actual Work" are located at the DotProject ( I think )

Thanks

Ok Keith , thanks for your response

Hi
Is this code about microsoft project planner??

Thank You

I'm new to dotProject, installed it just yesterday. I downloaded the backup.zip. Now what? How do I use/configure the importer.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Keith

I downloaded and installed the backup module, but when I import data with special char (áéíóú ÁÉÍÓÚ), I get problem. The name task was trunc.

Please help me.
