How to open PP 2007 thmx file in PP 2003

TR

I have several themes that had been saved from PowerPoint 2007 that I am
trying to import into a PowerPoint 2003. (Home vs Work). Is there a way to
get them imported? I tried clicking on it and opening it with the 2003, but
it says there is no converter. I have the update installed for the x
extensions.

Any Help?

Thanks!

Will this actually import the theme or simply a separate presentation file?
I am trying to do the apply a thmx theme to an already done presentation
(ppt).

Save the THMX as a PPTX, then open that with PPT 2003. You'll need to have
the compatibility pack installed on the 2003 machine.

It will create a presentation based on the theme. You can apply the
presentation as a template in 2003.

You can also save the THMX as a POT. Same difference.

PPT 2003 doesn't recognize THMX files -- these are a new thing in Office
2007 -- so you have to give it something it recognizes.
