MS Powerpoint 97/2003 Question
Long story and I know the answer would be use 2007 but Company does not have it!
I need to transfer several presentations from PP97 to PP2003 - so far it is easy. I know about 97/2003/07 readers etc but - on transfer the Instructor/Student notes disappear. Does anybody have any ideas please.

I'm not 100% sure - but if you e-mail them to someone with Office 2007 (Ultimate), could they upload them, save them to 2003 format and send them back?
Would that work?
Btw, I have 2007 Ultimate.

Do you mean they disappear from the notes area at the bottom of the PPT window?
Not sure of the answer, but I'd be happy to try it in 2003 for you if the files aren't too big.

Are we crossing here?
Try opening the files with Powerpoint 2007 - which then has a "save in 2003 format" option.
As you say, 2003 will not open the files correctly - but *will* 2007?
That might (might not) work. Only one way to find out.
