Cannot Open Project Database Files

T

Tim Monkman

Hi All,

I am using Project Pro2003 Fully Patched and not a Tral version. I save my
project file to a new or existing Project Database File, then close out. When
I try to open the file I get the error "the file could not be opened". I do
have SQL Desktop installed but shouldn't cause this problem and cannot find
anything on MS Support sites. I clues are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Are you saving to a SQL Server database, Access or another ODBC database?
What version of MDAC do you have (2.1 - 2.8)?
