File Extension | GAN |
Full Name | GanttProject Project Plan Format |
File with a .GAN extension contains a plan of a project – a tree of tasks with their deadlines and list of resources. Files are based on the XML format and can be imaged in form of Gantt schemes with proper software.
File Extension | MPP |
Full Name | Microsoft Project Plan Format |
Files with the .MPP extension contain MS Project data such as time lines, task lists, and other project information. The data is used for scheduling, burden control, finance, and other aspects of the project.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "GAN") to another (referred to as "MPP"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, GAN file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format GAN to format MPP becomes essential.
So, how can we perform GAN to MPP file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format GAN and transforming it into format MPP. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of GAN to MPP converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of GAN to MPP. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the GAN file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
