Microsoft Project 2000
This Link requires Microsoft Project 2000™ to be installed.
Microsoft Project
This Link requires Microsoft Project 2002™ to be installed.
Microsoft Project MPX
TimeLiner can read Microsoft Project™ .mpx files directly, without needing a copy of Microsoft Project™
(or any other scheduling software) installed. Primavera SureTrak™, Primavera Project Planner™ and
Asta Power Project™ can all export .mpx files.
Note:
Primavera SureTrak™ exports its unique id in the text10 field of the .mpx file, rather than the
unique id field. When linking to an .mpx file exported from SureTrak be sure to specify the text10
field as the unique id field in the Field Selector dialog.
Primavera Project Planner
This Link requires Primavera Project Planner™ to be installed. The Link status will be displayed as
"Status not available".
Note:
TimeLiner will ask for a user name and password to link to Primavera Project Planner. If these
are unknown, there is a possibility that these can be retrieved from the P3 shortcut.
To locate this information, right-click on the shortcut used to run P3, and select Properties. The
properties dialog will show the target command line which will look something like
"C:\Program Files\P3\P3.exe /U:Bob"
Here, the user name is set as "Bob", and for the purposes of the TimeLiner dialog the password
will be the same.
Primavera Project Management 4 and 5
This Link requires a number of elements to be installed alongside NavisWorks:
• Primavera Project Manager 4 and 5 product
• ActiveX Data Objects 2.1
• Primavera Software Development Kit (available on the Primavera CDs)
PPM 4 and 5 are database driven, and as such require the Software Development Kit to be installed in
order to set up the ODBC data source link. This can be installed and setup from the Project Management
CD by taking the following steps:
