This works for me (I basically recorded a Macro and reproduced it):

<code>
import win32com.client

project = win32com.client.Dispatch ("MSProject.Application")
project.FileOpen ("c:/temp/p1.mpp")
project.FileSaveAs (Name="c:/temp/p2.csv", FormatID="MSProject.CSV", Map="p1")
project.FileClose (Save=0)
project.FileQuit ()

</code>
