Hi there,



you have done it right so far, once you have created your .mpx file you need to open P3, and click tools, MPX conversion utility, click the MPX project to a P3 project.



in the convert project from window, select the folder and file where you created the mpx file, and select the mpx file, then click o.k, then it will ask you where you want to save your P3 project.



in order to convert P3 to Microsoft Project you just click the convert P3 project to mpx project when you are in the MPX conversion utility window in P3



Hope this helps
