[Cynanthis]

i have basically a 'dumb' question. I hae the PPT viewer to watch PPT shows
that i receive via internet or school projects-BUT is there a program called
power point that one can use to creat such shows?
I dont have Word installed in my pc and know how to make a presentation
using another program-but does power point have such a program-thanks

Yes, there if the full version of Microsoft Office, and a standalone version
of PowerPoint available for you to purchase. Because you sound like your a
student, you might want to look here

Yes, there is. Most people buy PowerPoint as part of Microsoft Office, which
includes Word and Excel and sometimes other programs, depending on which
version you buy. You can also buy PowerPoint on its own.

You mention school projects; there's a Student and Teacher edition of Office
that's quite inexpensive compared to the other versions. That might be your
best value if you decide to buy a copy of Office.

As Shawn mentions, you can download a Trial version to test if you like.
