Is there any way to connect to Microsoft Project Server via a C# Application?

Question

What would you do if you had to write a C# Application which would need to borrow Tasks and Projects from Microsoft Project?

The purpose is writing a C# Application which complements several features of Microsoft Project. For example I want my application to print certain types of customized reports based on data from Microsoft Project.

Answer 1

Project Server exposes it's own API: the Project Server Interface (PSI), which would probably be your first port of call. If this doesn't suit your purpose, MPXJ offers an interface which should allow you to read data from the Project Server database directly... although I'd caution that I haven't tried this myself yet!
