save project schedule is previous version - Project won't open the file
Yesterday I saved a project schedule (using File, Save), and now when I try to open the file, Project is saying the file was saved in a version prior to Microsoft Project 2000. Not sure how this happened but is there any way to recover the file? I used an organization approved license of Project and have no way to load an earlier version of Project to open the file (as instructed by the error message from Project).
- I was able to find a version of the file from 1 hour previous to the last save and open the file successfully. thus I am good. but still weird.

- thomasbmack,

John- thanks John!
- Hi Thomoa, I am also getting the same error like you. How this is resolved for you. Can you help on this
Saikumar445 I did not resolve my issue on the latest version of the file.
I went to the folder the .mpp file was in, right clicked on file, clicked on Versions and I was able to open the previous version of the file and save it as another file. It was saved only 1 hour before the latest version so I only lost one small change that I easily made in the new file.
