Hi Murali,


Thank you for writing to Aspose support team.

I have checked the “b4ubuild_sample.MPX” in Microsoft Project (MSP) 2010 and observed that it raises many exceptions before opening it, which shows that this file has some errors. Here another sample MPX file is tested and it is opening fine. Could you please provide us an error free sample file which can be used here to re-produce the scenario?

Regarding the “mpp9resource.mpd” file, its an old format and since 2007, MSP no longer saves in this format. I am afraid that this format cannot be read using Aspose.Tasks.

Please feel free to write us back if you have any other query in this regard.

Hi Waquas,

Previously I was using mpxj for extracting metadata.You can search in Google for mpxj for .net. That was working fine even it has the errors in project file. As per my understanding our Aspose.Tasks should not throw any exception when there are any errors in the file.Plz suggest.

Thanks & Regards,
N.Murali Krishna.
