(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

I am having schedule in MS project version 2002 and I have tried lot to convert it to MPX, so that it can be read by P3 but till date I am not getting any success.

Actually I am not good at MS project and need your favor to solve the problem. Hope you will help me.
