Is it possible to export data from access to MS Project?


Have a Merry Christmas Guy's

Some people make things happen, some watch while things happen, and some wonder 'What happened?'

Probably. Access will export to many formats, and I assume that Project can import many of the same formats.

What I do is to first export Project to Excel. Examine the format and create something similar in Access. Dump it to Excel and import into Project. I haven't got it sorted yet - Project expects the different levels to be clumped into the same column (with a level field). So I need bit of manual editing but it still saves hours over trying to re-enter data from scratch.
