Anybody can assist me ?. I already saved a copy of my Microsoft Proj file and when I wish to open under ’New Window’ to have 2 copies of same file on one screen so that it is easy for me to scroll & link tasks., but I got this reply : This file was not found. Check the spelling of the file name and try again. Is there a problem with the path?

Thank you,

Wan

    Hi Wan,

    Do you have this problem with all .mpp files or just this one?

    Have you tried re-naming the problem file and trying again?

    As an alternative, have you tried creating a copy of the original file and then use the Window > Arrange All function to compare the two files instead?

    Regards,

    Darren

    Darren,

    I only got problem with this file only. But previously I have also met this kind of problem.
    I try to rename this file & give it a simple short name and it works. I think it could be due to the fact that I could be using a long name (about 85 characters, with brackets & commas in between) to identify the file.
    I will also try out the methods you method if I meet this kind of problem again.

    Thanks for you help
