Microsoft Project export/Import to Visio

What are the steps to import Project file to visio. I stumbled on to it about 4 years ago and forgot the steps. Help!

Hi Ice06,
Here are some references about your questions, help it’s helpful.
Note: To import data from Project, you must have Microsoft Project installed on PC.

Solution Manager project export / import

Hi,
is there any possibility to export the project files from Solution Manager, change some data in an other program and then import them back to solution manager? This whole import/export process should work automatically.
The entire thing is to avoid that the users have to work with the Solution Manager instead of their usual and well known programs for project management.
Regards

Hi Andreas,
Currently there is no possibility to perform this.
kind regards,

Project duplication: Copy/Paste vs. Export/Import

Anyone have any thoughts on project duplication?
Presently I am copying a project and then pasting it into multiple new locations then renaming them. Recently I was in a training session where the instructor suggested exporting the project and then importing it claiming database size savings. Can anyone shed any insight?
Thanks in advance.

I can't imagine why an export/import would be a smaller footprint within the database than a project copy/paste. Not to mention that if you are talking about a relatively large project it can take a substantial amount of time to export and import. One of our schedules that is about 18k activities takes approximately 1.5 hours to export/import where as a project copy/paste only takes about 10 minutes. Note that we do not copy the baseline schedules when replicating projects.

Export/Import Project still buggy in v2.1.3

After seeing the update notes for v2.1.3 and noticing references to project importing, I started to get excited that maybe the bugs have been ironed out. Unfortunately my longstanding bug still remains.
If anyone can think of any workarounds I'd be extremely grateful...
I have a 2.16GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro with 2GB RAM, running OS X 10.5.6 and now Aperture 2.1.3
I have a project with many images, arranged into stacks, a pick in each stack with many adjustment and a 62-page book created from these picks. There are also some smart albums and a light-table.
Now I export the project (i.e. in the Project Inspector I right-click the project and choose Export > Project) to a file on the desktop and rename the existing project in Aperture. I now import the saved .approject file and I find that all my Picks are no longer Picks and my book is therefore no longer made up of my desired images. (I've tried this many times now and ruled out the possibility of a corrupt export file).
As a result, when I select the Book I get the "Non-Pick Images" dialog with the dreaded "One or more placed items are no longer the pick of a stack." message. "Use Current Pick" ruins the book - I have to go through and work out all the picks again (and also re-pan all the images within the Photo Boxes as this data has also been lost). "Create new Version" appears to preserve my book's original look, but my project now contains a couple of hundred more images than it used to and my other albums and light-table still have incorrect images shown as the Picks.
Does anybody have any ideas of what I can do to ensure the stack-picks are preserved during the export/import process?
(By the way, the reason I'm exporting and then re-importing is because I actually want to do the export from my laptop where the project is and then the import on my main work machine where the rest of my Aperture library lives, but that fails for the same reason, so I'm doing the export+import on my laptop for now to reduce the number of variables in the problem.)

I go with the assumption that you now know how to create transport sets. After having created a transport set containing the objects you want to be exported, go to the administer tab under the main page of portal. There you will find the Export/Import portlet. Here you need to choose your transport set from the first LOV and then click EDIT to choose the "Security Option". Now you export out the stuff. This will export all the user page customizations for you.
Thanks.

Export / Import Mapping into Different Project in same repository

Hi,
Any one tell me, its this possible?
We have one repository ( OWB 10 R2 ) and two projects named dev_project and test_project.
We want to copy or (export /import) the mappings from dev_project to test_project, how to do this? It seems export and import can be done if the servers are different (also it is possible to recover from the back up to the same server and same project.)
Thanks in advance
-NB

I don't use 10gr2, but with 9.2 it is possible to do this, but you need to modify the MDL file before importing it.
** Before doing this, I'd recommend you export everything from your design repository to be safe **
Export the object(s) from DEV_PROJECT to an MDL file. Then open the MDL file in your favorite text editor and rename the project from DEV_PROJECT to TEST_PROJECT. Then import the MDL file back into the repository matching by name (NOT UOID).
I'd recommend you not do this, however. Why do you need a seperate project for test and dev? Why not create another runtime repository connection in your project so that you can deploy to both the development and test environment from the same project?

Exporting / importing the Enhancement (or the project?)

Hi!
is it possible to perform exporting / importing of the Enhancement from one system to other? Systems are not connecting, so no TRs are possible...
Probably need to export / import the whole Z project (is it possible?), because Z project contains the enhancement which contains FMs, Funtion codes and screen areas..
Will reward,
Mindaugas.

thanks for reply, Seshu, but in my case systems are not connected, in fact it is transfering from Prod to Dev (special case), so no transport request is available between Prod and Dev...
That is why I would like to know how to do it manually. Of course I will assign Enhancement to some TR when creating it in Dev server.
Full sequence of systems is this:
Prod1 -> Dev2 -> Qual2 -> Prod2
So I need to take Enhancement from Prod1 and create it in Dev2, after transport to Qual2 and Prod2.

Export/import of Project: Master Image Not Found? No Referenced Files

I am using Snow Leopard and latest Aperture. I just exported a project from my Macbook and imported it on my iMac. All 200 images indicate that the Master Image Not Found and have the yellow triangle with the exclamation point.
I have read about problems using Referenced files. These are not Referenced.
What am I missing? Is this not the preferred way to move projects from machine to machine?
Thanks for any help...
Tom

Tony -
Just to close the loop. I discovered that some new RAM in the MBP was not good (it was OK, then didn't turn on - after a near heart attack, I tried taking out the new RAM and it was fixed!). It may be that the project export was corrupted by the bad RAM. I also disconnected the firewire drive, so that may also have contributed (even though the drive was not directly involved in any of the transfers).
So I'm marking this 'Solved'.
Thanks for your interest and help!

P6.7 cannot edit after importing microsoft project throgh xml

Request experts help urgenly.
I am using P6 version 7. I need to convert Microsoft project it to P6. So I convertered into XML and imported into P6.
It is comming nice. If I modify the duration it is start date and finish date are not modified

Hello Chris
You have some garbage in one of your entries in your lookup table or formula or something. I have seen this type of error when special characters such as & is being used. It's because it's a special character that browser look for.
Especially when somebody fat fingers && or ##.
I would query the tables and look hard for special characters..
PS. I found some of your awesome PowerShell code in the gallery. Thanks ..Good stuff.
Cheers!

How to export/import a Project from Dev area to Test area

Dear All,
We are using ODI for the first time in our organization. We have completed our developments and need to export the project and import it to the test area.
We exported the project as a whole and tried to import to teh new repository using teh mode "INSERT", but it is failed saying that the sequences are having values less than the object IDs.
When we tried to import using "DUPLICATE" mode it all Project got imported. But the relations to the folders are invalid.
Please guide us how to do export/import a project. (The documentations we referred does not talk about the errors mentioned above)
Thanks in Advance,
Jeneesh
Edited by: jeneesh on Dec 14, 2011 11:17 AM
We are getting the below error when trying to import using "INSERT" mode :
"You are importing an object from another repository with teh same identifier"

Dear All,
Thanks for the support.
The issue has been resolved, we followed the below document.

How to export/Import default prefs and object styles with no project open?

I would like to export my preferences and object styles with no projects open and them import them on my team's machines so that no matter what project we create, we all start from the SAME set of defaults. When I open captivate and check both with no projects open, there is no ability to import/export. I know I could open a project and export, but then importing is an issue.
I'm using CP8 on a Windows 8.1 64 bit machine.
Help?
Thx.
Lori

After a fresh install I start by editing the Preferences globally, that means by using Edit, Preferences before opening any project (like switching to Expert UI, default language, replacing feedback captions by shapes). There is indeed no way to import preferences from a specific file. I will do the same for some object styles (like creating a blank Highlight box for audio objects). You can only export/import from and to a project, same like for all Library assets.
However the Object styles: they are part of the default theme, along with their theme colors, master slides and skin. You cannot edit everything without having a project open. I would recommend to create a custom theme in a project, in which you have all the wanted object styles. Changing the theme colors (you can have a custom theme color palette) will change partially colors of the objects. Once you set that theme as default theme, you'll have all the object styles in the projects that use the default theme.
To transfer Preferences, custom themes to another machine, maybe this article could help you out. It was written for a different purpose, but you'll find the location of a lot of files that you could transfer in this post:

WIll I have duplicate problems when I Export / Import Project?

This is my first try at Exporting / Importing a Project to benefit from having Aperture on the road on a MacBook.
I run a secondary instance of Aperture on my MacBook with a managed library. I used it last week to rate, and adjust 40 images from a shoot while on the road. Those images are in Project ABC. My objective is to not lose all the adjustment work done while away now that I wish to re-locate these images to my primary instance of Aperture which runs on an iMac. I won't need them any longer on the MacBook.
I've exported Project ABC, and it's now sitting on the desktop of the iMac ready for import into Aperture where the library is also managed.
Between the shoot and today, however, I had uploaded the same images from my CF card to the iMac's Aperture library into Project XYZ. No work has been performed on any of them, but the image names are identical to those in Project ABC waiting to be imported.
My plan is to import Project ABC, and, assuming everything comes over in good shape, to delete the unadjusted masters/versions in Project XYZ one by one.
Question 1: When image GEN_1234.nef with all its adjustments, etc., contained in Project ABC, is imported, will Aperture have a problem that GEN_1234.nef (unadjusted) already is in the library in Project XYZ?
Question 2: I've checked the MacBook after exporting, and Project ABC looks as though nothing ever happened. Does this sound right? I'd expected the Masters to be gone, but "M" toggles between the master and the adjusted version.
Thanks.
Terry

Problem #2 is not a problem. We have been able to somewhat install Oracle when those warnings appear. The client install works fine with those warning messages in the terminal window. NOTE: They are just warnings...

Export/Import Project problems

I have two machines: a PowerMac (G5) and a MacBook Pro (Intel Dual Core). Both 2GB RAM, running OS X v10.5.6 and Aperture 2.1.2. (More tech spec info available if anyone thinks it relevant).
I have built up a project on the MacBook Pro, creating albums, creating stacks and making picks within the stacks, making adjustments to each of the picks and then creating a book.
I now want the project on the PowerMac G5, which is my master machine and contains all my other projects.
On the MacBook Pro I exported the project and then copied the resulting .approject file to the PowerMac. I then imported the project into Aperture from there. On a cursory scan, everything seems fine and in the Projects Inspector it shows 1376 images against the project on both machines. However, if I look more closely, I've lost all my picks. I.e. I need to go through every stack again and reselect my picks (very boring).
It gets worse when I look at the Book within the project - it's lost the positionings (i.e. I double clicked on the image and moved it around slightly to get the best crop for the selected box shape). And then I did a Close All Stacks and it deleted every picture from the book so all 60 pages were empty again and the images were all back down in the film strip!
At this point, my immediate thought was the .approject file got corrupted during the copy, but I've done a recursive diff (diff -qr fileA fileB) between the file on the MacBook Pro and the file on the PowerMac and it reported no differences at all.
Has anybody else had similar problems? Is the project import/export known to be flakey? Better yet, anybody know of any workarounds?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.
Darren

OK - I've tried eliminating some of the variables and it turns out the two-machines-issue is a bit of a red herring and this is a straightforward Export/Import bug in Aperture.
On a single machine (2.16GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro with 2GB RAM, running OS X 10.5.6 and Aperture 2.1.2 (build 3G13)) I have a project with many images. I create versions of these images and apply adjustments (Sharpness, Monochrome Mixer, Exposure, Enhance, etc.). I then make the adjusted version the Pick and I've created a 62 page book from these Picks.
Now I export the project (i.e. in the Project Inspector I right-click the project and choose Export > Project). I export the project to a file on the desktop and rename the existing project in Aperture. I now import the saved .approject file and I find that all my (long and carefully chosen) Picks are no longer Picks. (I've tried this a few times and ruled out the possibility of a corrupt export file).
As a result, when I select the Book I get the "Non-Pick Images" dialog with the dreaded "One or more placed items are no longer the pick of a stack." message.
I have two options at this point: "Use Current Pick" ruins the book - I have to go through and work out all the picks again (and also re-pan all the images within the Photo Boxes as this data has also been lost).
Or I can choose "Create new Version", which appears to preserve my book's original look (I haven't looked in too much detail yet), but my project now contains a couple of hundred more images than it used to (or at least extra versions which, whilst I know these are relatively 'cheap', are still unnecessary) and this still doesn't help with my other albums and light tables, which still have incorrect images shown as the Picks.
I'm finding this quite a worry - I originally hesitated to move my photo library into Aperture due to the thought of losing the metadata one day if I moved from Aperture to something else, but in the end I decided to trust that something as simple-to-test as Export/Import would get properly implemented - now I'm beginning to fear that it doesn't even within the same version of Aperture, never mind different versions of Aperture or (heaven forbid) different applications altogether

Double Spaced PDF after exporting from Microsoft Project

As of recent, every time I save my Microsoft Project Schedule to a PDF version the output is double spaced.Within Microsoft Project there is no double spacing. I've been unable to find any type of setting or configuration to correct this problem. Any ideas? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Austin ,
I would like to know few things before we assist you further .
Which version of Acrobat are you using?
It could be file specific.Is it happening for any specific project you are working on ?
What happens when you try to print it?
Try updating it to the latest version .
Launch Acrobat>Navigate to Help>Check for Updates .
Try this once if you are using any of the previous versions of Acrobat and see if this helps .
