Hi Rivan,
I'm sorry you and others are having this problem. The reason for no
Microsoft response is that they very seldom put any appearance in these
newsgroups and certainly do not monitor them. The reason you've had no MVP
response is that we don't have any answers. I suggest you send feedback
directly to Microsoft via:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/project/default.aspx - feedback at the
left of the page.
As to a viewer, I've never seen anything from Microsoft about a viewer.
Indeed, we always refer people to our FAQs as per:
Please see FAQ Item: 16. Project Viewer.

MS still denies they have a problem. They still promise a viewer for
Porject
2007 in Project 2003 in the 4th Q. I had a repeat problem with a new
client
a few weeks ago. So, I reinstalled Project 2003. Project 2007 is still
installed and when it is repaired I will use it.
By the way since reinstalling 2003 I have not had a single problem!
The MS engineers who monitor this site should accept responsibility and
study and fix hte problem.

Oh boy, I have had the same as described. Just installed the Project 2007
and
spent a day creating my first project on it, which had to be distributed
by
end of play that day. I'd been saving as 2003 throughout due to everyone
else
still on the old version. They way David describes it is prety much what
I am
seeing. If I can have this happen on my first project, and the amount of
people saving as 2003 from the product, this has got to be a massive
issue
for corporates and small businesses that simply dont have the
time/resources
to have projects rewitten. To say I am cheesed off is an understantment
but
these things can happen. Disconcerted to find no recovery tool or patch
anywhere...
Does anyone have any information as to how MS are getting on with
resolving
this issue?
All the best...

Disaster has struck twice now when I've saved my RTM Project 2007 file
in the
2003 format for others to view. I go merrily working on the file,
saving it
in 2003 format as I go. Everything looks great, until I close Project
2007
and reopen the 2003-formatted file. Indentation is completely mixed up
and
tasks are mixed together and repositioned all over the file. I've lost
DAYS
of work because of this!!! Was it just poorly developed and tested?
Please
tell me there is a fix???!!
