Hi,

I'm developing a Web Based application to create project using PSI.
Now, I can create project and can publish. But my client wants to
export the project in DB to a mpp file, so that, they can read it
offline. is there any way to do that?


thanks,

The only way is to use automation to open Project, then the file from
project server then save it as .mpp.

Thanks for reply, but could you please explain it a little bit more
detail?
Can I open/update mpp file like open word/exel files?

Yes using Automation. Automation will open a copy of Project and you can
control it completely from Word or Excel. Search Word or Excel VBA help for
working with other applications.

Help has examples. If you don't know how to do automation, it will be
quicker to get help, especially if you are trying to get it working from a
web based application as you will get various rights issues etc. Automation
from Word or Excel is easy, web makes it more complex.
