What are my options for programmatically accessing a Microsoft Project file? What are the pros and cons of each approach?

I will basically need to import all data from the file into another data structure. Using the Office Interop assembies is low on the preference scale.

The MPXJ (mpxj.sf.net) library comes in both Java and .Net flavours and will allow you to read and write multiple Microsoft Project file formats using a single consistent API. I am aware of commercial products which use both the Java and the .Net versions of MPXJ without any issues.
