We have a MS Project Schedule of 6000 line that is resource loaded. We cannot open the file anymore. Is there a possibility that the file is to big for projects. The PC is not the problem because we tried to open it on a powerful Drawing PC. Is there any setting in MS Project that we can change. This is a very serious problem so all help will be much appreciated

    Willem,

    Some further info that might help us to help you:

    What version of MS Project are you using to open?

    Is it the same version used to create the file?

    What file format is the project?

    How big (Mb) is the project file?

    What happens when you try to open -eg do you get an error message?

    Have you tried opening it on a different machine?

    Have you tried creating a new project of similar size and opening that?

    I managed to sort the problem. I dont know why but in my resource sheet I had 3 lines with dates in the resource ID. After deleting the lines the schedule operated normally again
