Free tool to convert project plans created by
MS-Project (MPP files) to Smartworks Project Planner
(PPR) format. The tool also converts the Smart Works
Project Planner Reader (PPR) files to MS Project
Exchange format(MPX), which can be viewed using MS
Project and Primavera Project Planner. Users can now
share the MPP files with others who do not have
MS-Project, freely. Now your customers can view the
progress of their project in terms of gantt charts ,
Network diagrams and other graphical charts even if
they do not have MS-Project installed in their system.
However the user cannot modify the project plan or
print it.

Please note that the current version will convert only
the mpp files created using MS Project 2000, 2002 and
2003 can be converted to PPR format.

Users can use the freeware tool Smartworks Project
Planner reader which can be downloaded from
http://www.smartworks.us/htm/freedownloads.htm to view
the converted project plans. The current version of
the project planner reader runs on Windows
95/98/ME/NT/XP/2000/2003.
