    Pinheiroevy,

    First, what version of Project are you using?

    Second, from where or from whom did you receive the file? Is it a trusted source? If so, what happens when you select "yes"? Does the file open?

     

    If you do not trust the origin of the file, I would delete it and move on.

        Pinheiroevy,
        Apparently whoever created the file included some type of links, be they paste links from another app, hyperlinks, an image file, etc.

        Was the file ever part of a linked structure (i.e. was it part of a master/subproject or resource pool/sharer structure)?

        And again, back to my first question. What version of Project are you using?

        Would you be willing/able to send the file to me so I could look at it? If so, I'll give you my information.
        John
