suddenly I don't open mpp files
Hello All, I'm using MS Project 2016 and I saved a file several times. Now, I cannot open the file in MS project. Could You help me how I can repair it?
- To those following this thread,
Demetrio sent me his file and as expected I got a "problem with this file" error message when I attempted to open it. I was able to open it read only and could see resources on the Resource Sheet but a task count showed zero tasks.
If someone else has any ideas please jump in.

Hello All,
I just have again the issue on a different project. On Yesterday, I introduced change in my previous file ( March 2021) and now I can not open it. I noticed that if I open the file with Project 2013 viewer appear the following message:
MPPFile.Reprocess MPPFile.process: switch (format) (type=14):
Number was less than the array's lower bound in the first dimension.
Parameter name: srcindex
Stack trace:
at Housatonic.HPV7.Mpp.MPPFile.Reprocess ()
at Housatonic.HPV_Solo.MainSolo.FileOpen (string fileName, String password)
Thanks in advance

Hello All,
I finally solved:
after several attempts, I tried to open the corrupt file with a different PC and with a different Ms project (Project on line). I managed to open it, save it with a different name and then reopen it and edit it on my PC with my 2016 project.
Then, I can say:
They are the Mysteries of Microsoft !!!!!!!!
