I'm trying to open a PPT file, but when I try and open it, i get the
message "There was an error accessing file c:/xxxx"

I tried opening a new presentation, and using "insert slides from" but
no go.

the only odd thing is that if i open the file with the PowerPoint
Viewer, I can see every slide plus images and animation. But any
other way I can't open it.. I even tried renaming the file .pps and
opening, but no go.

Help!!
 
Hmmm. Did you try inserting the slides one-by-one or in batches rather than
all at once? There may be other ideas here:http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00108.htm

Unfortunately, I can't even get the slides to open in the insert
window to do it one by one. PPT refuses to load it into that window..
 
Ok. Really odd you can see it in the viewer - are you having trouble opening
other presentations? Try opening it from a different angle (i.e. through
explorer, through 'open'). Make sure PowerPoint has the latest updates
installed. Try Help -> Detect & repair too.

If all that fails send me a copy - e-mail on website
