Issue description :
Myself and My Project Manager are unable to open/create an enterprise
calendar from within PWA 2010 in Project Professional 2007 (we're
running in backwards compatibility mode). When they try, the below
error message is received.I have confirmed that they have their accounts set-up correctly for
Project Pro 2007, and the URL matches exactly under Tools, Enterprise
Options. I have tried this on XP with IE8 and Windows 7 with IE9,
anyone and everyone gets this error only
when you try to create a calendar. I have confirmed that protected
mode is off on IE 9. I have checked all settings and this is the only
problem we have ran into.Error Message:
"This operation requires that Microsoft Project Professional 2010 or
Microsoft Project Professional 2007 to be installed and configured to
connect to a profile for this Project Web App site. If Project
Professional is loaded, ensure that it is connected
to the profile for this Project Web App site and that there are no
dialog boxes open."I have tried just about everything I can think of - reinstalling
Project Pro, reinstalling IE 8 and 9, patching Project Pro and Office
etc. Reviewing other topics on the issue didn't resolve it for me. I
patched Project Server 2010 in BCM, and re-installed
it, nothing get past this one issue. All other aspects of Project
Server 2010 work fine.Any ideas would be appreciated....

Hi there,
I'm pretty sure you might need the Project Server 2007 PWA activex control to do this and other functionality such as open projects from PWA 2010 in Project Professional 2007. See:
Might be worth a test on a test client machine.
Thanks
