PPT 2003 - Some Controls on this presentation can't be activated

[Guest]

Hello
I have a power point presentation that used to work with no problem. Now
when I open the presentation I get the following message "Some controls can't
be activated, they might not be registerd on this computer".
I opened the presentation on another computer and it works fine, and I don't
get the message.
I tried deleting and re-installing flash, but didn't help.
I'm running Office 2003. Any help will be much appreciated.

Best Regards.
GF

Try going to the Adobe site and re-installing the latest Flash player for
IE.

Well, nuts.

Oh, wait. I bet the Flash was added with SwiffPoint Player. Install that.
It's free. Google will turn up a link. (I have to install this add-in as
necessary and then uninstall it when finished because it makes
double-clicking a slide in slide sorter view *not* switch to normal view. It
also makes double-clicking an object on a slide not open the Format Object
dialog box. These two things really hurt my productivity, so I have to keep
uninstalling it.)
