MS Project 2007 - How to open an MS Project file in silent mode.

Question

Hello,

Does anyone know how to open an MS Project in silent mode from .Net?

I'm trying to programatically open an MS Project file using the project.interop, it does work except when the project file to open is from an older version. I'm trying be able to open the file and ignore the error.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

I can move it for you if you like.

I know there is a switch you can set on the command, I just don;t know it off the top of my head.

Also, I tend to set the visible property to False until I am certain the Project file passes integrity checks or anything else I want to do before I enlighten the user.
