Hi, i've a question, is there anyway to read data from mpp file by using ODBC connection. If yes, can you please show me some sample codes like the connection string and how to read data. I'm trying to develop a standalone application by using either VB 2005 or C# 2005. I know i can use OLEDB Provider to read data from mpp file but i don't have MS Project installed on my machine, so I don't have the provider. Please advise. Thanks in advanced.
OLEDB is the only way I know and I think that's the only driver available. Without Project on your PC you need to get the users to save their schedules to a format such as xml that you can read. -- Rod Gill Microsoft MVP for Project Author of the only book on Project VBA, see: http://www.projectvbabook.com "JCheah" wrote in message news:5053C226-947F-41B0-B545-D4D7CD51E54E@microsoft.com... > Hi, i've a question, is there anyway to read data from mpp file by using > ODBC > connection.
