Hi Dear Pioneers;

Just now I received an error message "PROJ environment variable is too long" while I was trying to filter my project.I have almost 6500 activities.
What could be the reason? Is there any one who faced same problem before?

I also tried to export this file but I could not manage it because of this same error message...

Please help me.

    David,
    use PFXW.exe in p3win /p3 progs... or u have to recopy to another new file using impor export ...just guess...maybe this is because some of your layout or your setup is not apply to p3 programme... so the software become crazy. not joking... i have experiencing this problem before. One thing i know about this software ...its very sensitive and have to follow like sequencing.
    good luck.. have a try

    If I remember correctly, the maximum length of the string pointing to the location of the P3 files is 64 characters.

    Wasnt so much of a problem, with 16-bit architecture where directory names where limited to 8 characters, but in 32/64 bit systems, people have got used to identifying directories with longer titles.
