From: Frustrated Susy on 21 May 2010 16:14 I used the trial version of Office 2007 with my new computer. I wasn't thrilled with PP when it came to macros. After the trial ended I used Open Office.org (didn't solve the macros issue - I have "games" for my students to play), but at least I could use Word and Excel type programs. I discovered I had one more installation of Student & teacher 2003. I installed it. Word and Excel run fine. PP opens fine as for a new file, but existing files do not open in PP. They open in openoffice.org . If I try to save the PP as 2003 it says it's not supported and won't. Any suggestions?
From: Frustrated Susy on 21 May 2010 21:25 Here's the box that pops up when I try to save the file as PowerPoint 97-2003 & 95 presentation ---You are saving Presentation 2.ppt in a format compatible with PowerPoint 95 and later. Saving a file in this format will remove any restriction on this document and may significantly increase the size of the file. do you want to save the presentation in this format?

Did you uninstall the 2007 trial after it ended and before you installed Office 2003? If not, uninstall 2003, the trial and activation assistant, reboot, reinstall Office 2003, update it fully, install the compatibility pack and then re-update the computer. Office 2007 files use a different format than 97-2003 files and can be significantly smaller in size. When you save as 97-2003 file type the size will grow as the warning says.
From: John Wilson john AT technologytrish.co DOT on 22 May 2010 05:56 You can't save as 97-2003 & 95 from 2003 SP3 or later versions and do not need to in nearly every situation unless the recipient uses 95 which is fairly unlikely. To save in a 97-2003 format either choose that from 2007 or save a a PowerPoint Presentation *.ppt from 2003 -- john ATSIGN PPTAlchemy.co.uk Free PPT Hints, Tips and Tutorials http://www.pptalchemy.co.uk/powerpoint_hints_and_tips_tutorials.html "Frustrated Susy" wrote: > I used the trial version of Office 2007 with my new computer.

From: Frustrated Susy on 23 May 2010 22:39 Upon further investigation, I've learned that Office 2003 and Windows 7 aren't the best combination. The issue of not being able to open up PP files saved on my Windows 7 computer can be circumvented by using the OPEN option from file.
