Hi all, so I’m working with someone who is using Project for the Web. This will only allow them to export to excel. I’m trying to take this and import it into my desktop Project Pro, but can’t seem to do it. Here’s the steps I’m following:

New from Excel workbookImport Wizard selectionsNew mapAs a new projectTasks & Import includes headersSource worksheet name auto populates with the only tab value in the excel, Project tasksHere’s the issue… Under “From: Excel Field”, I’m not able to select anything at all. The dropdown is empty. Clicking Add All does nothing. It’s like it’s not recognizing the headers.

I did make sure to remove the excel export’s Project Information that ends up at the top of the tab, so that the field names are in the header row.

Anyone able to help or have another idea? Goal is that this smaller plan will be part of my larger plan so that this vendor is managing their plan but right now just trying to convert theirs before doing that.

TIA!
