Recently installed Project 2010. When I open gantts that were originally
created in Project 2000 (just to view them - no changes), if I use the save
as option and select the Project 2000-2003 format, if you try and open the
gantt with Project 2000 either the tasks are removed or the gantt does not
load at all. Just get a Project has encountered a problem and will close
message.

Says on the tin that should be backward compatible - but is it?

I can't remember what the highest Service Pack was for Project 2000. Was it
Sp2 or SP3? In any event, make sure you have the latest SP for Project 2000
installed. Then try again.

Can Project 2003 open the file saved from Project 2000?
