Task.OutlineNumber is not populated when reading from mpp file

Hi,

I am using the latest version of Aspose.Tasks to read a .mpp file (MS Project 2003/2007) in a .NET environment. When i get the tasks back in the object, the Task.OutlineNumber is always "Nothing" for all the tasks in the project. I verified in the project file that all the tasks have a valid outline number. If i read an XML file saved from MS Project however the Task.OutlineNumbers are populated accurately.

Please advise. This is a critical roadblock for us right now since we have a release coming up next week.

Thank you

Hello,

If I’m not mistaken, OutlineNumber is not implemented for MS Project 2007 mpp format only but should work fine with MS Project 2003 mpp files. Anyway, we will try to implement it on this week.

Thank you very much for the prompt response. We would really appreciate if the support for the OutlineNumber property is implemented. Also i read another post about extended attributes (Text1-Text30, Cost1-Cost30 etc) not supported yet for mpp format. This is something we need as well for our next release. Is there an ETA on when this would be available?

Thank you

Text# attributes should be available together with OutlineNumber. Cost# and Number# properties little later.
