I have created MPX files from an excel sheet, and am using MS Project as a viewing tool.
Everything works fine except for one thing: How to import tasks which have >1 predecessor?
* I have tried imports using "successor" instead of predecessor
* When exporting tasks (save as) from MS Project tasks with multiple predecessors are saved as: 70; ... ;"14FS+0d;16FF+0d"; ...
but I am unable to use "...;..." as an escape sequence to include the ; character to delimit within the "predecessors" field.
* I have tried using ; , # as delimiter character for the MPX file (specified on the very first row of the MPX file at the fourth character position)
but that doesn't help either.
Would be very grateful for assistance on this!
The sample I think ought to work, but yields an error message when launching it in MS Project is:
MPX; MS Project 3.0
...
61;3;1;70
...
70;1;The first master task
70;2;Subtask one
70;2;Subtask two;2FS+0d
70;2;Subtask three;"2FS+0d;3FF+0d"
