From: Kim A Kim on 2 Jun 2010 15:16 We currently have Project 98. Yes, I know...ancient. Will that work on a Microsoft 2007 system? And if so, would people trying to open something created in 98 have trouble?
From: Jan De Messemaeker on 2 Jun 2010 16:53 Hi, What exactly do you mean by a Microsoft 2007 system? Which people? Which version of Project would they run? -- Jan De Messemaeker Microsoft Project Most Valuable Professional +32 495 300 620 For availability check: http://users.online.be/prom-ade/Calendar.pdf "Kim A" <Kim A(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:1149D735-4A51-4C12-8293-0927460E25E5(a)microsoft.com... > We currently have Project 98.

From: Dale Howard [MVP] on 2 Jun 2010 16:53 Kim A -- I think you are headed for problems. Microsoft Project 2007 can only open projects created in the 2000, 2002, and 2003 versions of the software. I do not believe it can open projects created in Project 98. Hope this helps. -- Dale A.

From: Kim A on 2 Jun 2010 18:06 Sorry, would Project 98 install on a Windows 7 system? If our customers were using a newer version of Project and they were trying to open a file we created in Project 98, would that cause issues?

See Dale's reply. My hunch is that Project 98 will work on Windows 7 but I never tried it (nor am I likely to ever try). Instead of spending money upgrading Windows, spend the money and upgrade Project to a newer or newest version. Most importantly, don't mix versions on the same project team . Even better, keep the number of copies of Project down to the very few who maintain and publish the project model in Project. Resist temptation to send out copies of this project model to others unless there is a real need. Better to send out reports about the state of the project than send out the raw data. --rms www.rmschneider.com On 02/06/10 23:06, Kim A wrote: > Sorry, would Project 98 install on a Windows 7 system?
