Processing Microsoft Project file from command line

[vivek phalak]

All,

We are working on a huge exchange project that requires us to upload and
download ms project files to a database from the client (web - browser).
The way we are looking at is to get the .mpp file to the server and parse
the contents and load the data into an Oracle database. Is there any command
line utility that can convert this .mpp file to a text file without having
to launch MS Project. Asking the client to save .csv files is not an option.

Appreciate any inputs.

Thanks.
Vivek.

I'd try asking your question in a different newsgroup, such as the vba
newsgroup. It really doesn't have any relevance to APIs, and you'll be
more likely to get a helpful response in another group.

Ciao, Craig
