   (If you are not using the latest version of Projects Connector, a window appears asking you to download the latest version.)

4. Click Yes to continue.

   Note:

   If you had been using an older version of Projects Connector, you may receive a message indicating that the standalone Wizard mode is no longer supported. Instead, we request that you use the OpenAir toolbar within Microsoft Project and need to uninstall the previous version. Click Yes to continue.
