Link or Embed Microsoft Project Information in Another Program

You can copy existing Microsoft Project information, even an entire view, into a file created in another program by including the information as an object. You can embed an object independent of its original Microsoft Project file or link it for dynamic updates from the source file. You can do this from any Microsoft Project view.

For specific information about copying Microsoft Project objects into another program, see the documentation for that program.
