Repairing an .mpp

R

Robert Tosello

I may have a problem with one particular .mpp since MS
Project crashes more frequently when I work on this one.
Is there any reliable and useful utility to check
integrity of the .mpp ?
Many thanks

Hi Robert,

Welcome to this Microsoft Project newsgroup :)

If you suspect a corrupt file, you could try the suggestions in FAQ Item:

There are NO guarantees here but, in the past, I have had occasional
success recovering what appeared to be corrupted files by saving them to a
different format, restarting Project and loading the different format file.

If your file is "slightly corrupt" you _might_ be able to fix it by saving
it in the .mpd format, exiting Project, restarting Project and then opening
the .mpd file.
