Microsoft Project & QlikView

Hi, is it possible to extract data directly from MS Project in QlikView using ODBC? If so does anyone know where I can get the drivers from? I'm using Project 2003.

Cheers

Steve

Have you tried to export the project as XML then loads it straight in QV as a table file?

Hi Fernando,

Thanks for your rely, yes I've tried that and it does work, also saved the file as an access database and that too worked. Was just wondering if there is a direct connection instead of requiring the project data to be exported/saved-as before being imported into QlikView.

Cheers

I read a post in a Microsoft Forum saying that you should avoid ODBC connection with Project 2003, even when upgrading to 2007. But I agree with you, a direct connection is much more reliable!

Cheers,

Fernando
