hi sally,

so what you have is different from powerpoint that comes with MS office?

I opened mine up {PP - came w/office98} and went to the help section- but i don't know if that will be any help for you.
If you can give me a specific to look up in the help section -maybe that will work best.

Do you have actual powerpoint program already ?
maybe you need the PP for the PPV to work?

My {PPV} is in with the MS office -PP program.

the ext. of a file is .txt , .bmp, .doc, .jpeg, .exe

I think ZS was asking the ext. of the file you are trying to open?

let me know if you are still having a problem with it.
