PowerPoint Upgrade

[Guest]

One of the employees at my company wants to upgrade to PowerPoint 2007
without upgrading the rest of her Office 2003 suite. Is that possible or even
recommended? Any issues that one could forsee with this, such as with office
update?

Regards

Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. PPT uses Excel 2007 for its charting, so
she'll be stuck with the old-style 2003 charts if she doesn't also install
Excel 2007.

Thanks Echo. I figured there's quite a bit of integration between
componenets. I think our user is concerned over the price of the whole
upgrade package.
