Encountering error when clicking on the PPTView icon to play a Powerpoint
presentation that I burned on a DVD.

From office 2007 on windows 2007, I published a Powerpoint Presentation to
CD onto my hard drive. I then burned the presentation onto a DVD using the
Microsoft tool.

The following is the error message that I am encountering when I click
pptview and select the presentation to play from the CD:
The file requires the Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office System to view
its contents.


How do I fix it?

Have a look here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923505
