Looking for portable MS Project alternative

I have found a couple of alternatives for Microsoft Project. However, both Gantt and WorkBench require Java. I do not want to install Java for just one application.

Does anyone here know of other alternatives?

Thank you in advance. :wink:

This may do the trick, it requires install but copying the folder then uninstalling did not prevent it working. I don't think it writes anything to the registry.

Thanks!

FYI...I found the latest version on their homepage at:

it requires install
Hah! Not with my new friend, Universal Extractor.

Pretty good that Universal Extractor, I'm going to using that a fair bit from now on.

I've recently been informed of Universal Extractor too and it seems that it would be a really great way of avoiding having to install any apps that are otherwise portable. Perhaps the PF website FAQs could be updated to reflect this recent revelation! :)

Thanks! Posted Universal Extractor to database, and added an FAQ entry. Looks like I should start using this app more often too.
