I used to save Powerpoint slides by copying and pasting out of powerpoint and
into a file.

With 2003 I was able to open using the shell scrap handler (?)

With 2007 it doesn't haver that option and I have hundreds of songs on
Powerpoint that I can't open.

Can anyone help?

Regards

Colin

You can open the scraps in 2003 and save them as PPTs that PPT2007 will be
able to read. It may even be possible to automate this process with a
macro.

In the future, you should avoid using the scrap files for items of
importance because there is no guarantee that their format will be supported
in future versions, as seems to be the case here.
