I've loaded Office Enterprise 2007 and now every time I open Powerpoint I get
the message "Powerpoint couldn't load the addin C:\Programme File\Microsoft
Office\Office\aware97.ppa". Powerpoint (2007) seems to work ok but it's
really annoying to get this warning each time. I've tried adding addins, but
there aren't any to select from. Any help?

where does this Addin come from? It looks as if this Addin was written for
Office 97 (because of the name ...97.ppa). Maybe there is a newer ppa
available. I guess that Powerpoint 2007 can not cope with an Addin for
Office 97.

If you do not this Addin any longer you can go the folder and move the
ppa-file to another location.

Peter,
PPT 2007 seems to have migrated your existing entries in the registry for
add-ins from older PPT versions. Check in the registry in the following
locations for entry corresponding to aware97.ppa and delete them.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\PowerPoint\AddIns
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\PowerPoint\AddIns
