    Hello,

    Thanks for creating a new thread. So that you can get your work done, I would recommend converting your Powerpoint presentations to other formats so you can at least view them. To do this, use the free ZamZar: Zamzar - Free online file conversion

    Simply upload the file, select an end format and download it. Powerpoint presentations can be converted to:

    • html – Hypertext Markup Language
    • odp – OpenDocument presentation
    • pdf – Portable Document Format
    • png – Portable Network Graphic
    • ppt – Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation
    • ps – Postscript document
    • swf – Macromedia Flash Format File

    Choose something like .pdf, convert the document and have fun working!

    To fix the issue, are you using Office Powerpoint or Powerpoint Viewer? Then we will try to fix this issue properly.

    I've got another question for you, Since I'm so illiterate in computers. I just got the software for MS Office 2007, can I uninstall the "trial version", of MS'07 and reinstall the full version or whatever it's called and that fix the problem?
    I don't know how to do what you've been telling me to do, that's why I had asked you to IM me, so you could walk me through it. But, on the other hand, if doing this would fix the problem, I CAN do this.
    Thanx in advance for your help!!!!

    Yes, doing that would almost certainly solve the problem. Make sure the trial is fully uninstalled first, then install your new Office. If you have any problems, just ask!
