Hello:
I am running Microsoft XP Pro Version 2002 with a
Microsoft Office 2002 Suite containing PowerPoint 2002.
Computer is a two month old HP with 106 GB of open space
remaining on C Drive and 1 GB of Ram. I have prepared a
65 slide presentation containing mostly Text with
inserted Music and Sound clips here and there
throughout. Upon competeion I saved the presentation to
a PowerPoint Folder in My Documents.
When I attempt to reopen it back into Powerpoint for
further work the first slide (the Title Slide) appears in
the center Normal View Window but the left side window
where the Thumbnails of all the slides normally appear
contains only white squares with a small icon in the
center. The icon contains a small Red Square, a small
Green Circle, and a small Blue Triangle. Clicking on
anything brings up a window that says the program is not
responding. It is frozen and I can do nothing with it,
except "X" out of it. Other presentations open Ok, so it
seems to be just this presentation.
Some points of information .....
The title slide was made first (see next paragraph),
except for a Music clip (.mid file) that was inserted on
it when all the other animation was done. (Most of the
other files are .wav files and a few .avi files.) After
the title slide was made the presentation was made by
doing the text portion of all the slides first. Then I
came back and inserted some Custom Animation to some of
the Text and also inserted the sound clips and music
clips where I needed them.
Version 2002 is suppose to open and be able to use older
version programs. It is also suppose to allow the use of
different master templates in the same program. The
first title slide is a slide that is using a 1997
Template that I brought into the 2002 program by
downloading it from an old disk, deleting all of the old
presentation except the title slide and then saving it to
templates and using it to start the new presentatiion.
There is a new Photo and a new music (.mid file) inserted
on it. The remaining slides are build on a second Master
Template Design taken from the 2002 program. This should
not create a problem.
I had no problem saving and re-opening this presentation
until I added the custom animation, music clips and sound
clips, including the music .mid file to the title slide.
Can I please get some help on how I might be able to open
and use my presentation, or if it is the title slide that
is the problem, how I might delete this slide and save
the rest of the work. ???
Thank You,
Bowdrie.
