Hi all,
I am using MO 2000 and am just learning. I saved my presentation as a 'type'
presentation as that was what the defaul setting was. When I open the it it
opens as if I am still working on it. I have since changed it to .pps after
reading amother posting....It still opens the same. I do not start school til
next month and I would like to e-mail this as my Christmas card.
Please, all help needed.

Thanks in advance
 
If you double click a .PPS file it will open in slide show mode. If, on the
other hand, you open PowerPoint and then open the presentation using the File >
Open menu, it will open in edit/normal mode. Try double clicking it. Do all of
the people on your distribution list have PowerPoint installed? They must have
PowerPoint or the PowerPoint Viewer installed on their system in order to view
your presentation.
 
Sonia,
Thanks for your help. Before I got to reading it my son came in from work
and showed me what I was doing wrong. Kids, they are just too smart. I was
opening the presentation and not the slide show.....duh. Yes, I know about
the viewer. I was told that it some how could be sent with the presentation.
Now I just need to figure out how to 'pack and go' as I was told that is how
to send it.
Thank you
