Your PM says "MSP 2000"; do you mean MS Project is sdending a error message, or is it the MPX2000 utility?
This piece of software works well with any size of project; before saving your project in MSP, make sure all the durations dipslay in the same unit and display the dates in date/time format.
In case it does not work properly, send me your file.
When I try to convert small projects with 10-15 activities it works OK, but as I try bigger ones it shows "Run-time error 5, Invalid procedure call or argument.
I have downloaded the article and figured out the way I can do transfer.
The question I have got now is: in your article you refer to "MPP to MPX conversion utility" availability at the Primavera.com but I could not find it there, do you have this software available in your possession if yes, can you please me at [email protected]
Thanks for your feedback but I did not manage to download that article from your web-site, can you please paste the exact link of the articles whereabout

This under tools is P3 to MPX and vice versa converter.
To use this I need my mpp file transferred to mpx, and I use MsProject 2000. How can I transfer mpp into mpx, thats my bottleneck
This is a P3 menu item under Tools.
