Problem with opening an embedded Powerpoint object Word

A

abstrakmind

Hi all. I have a Word document with an embedded Powerpoint object created in
Word 2003 on the PC. PC users can launch the embedded object by double
clicking on the icon, which in turn opens up Powerpoint.

On the other hand, Mac users will get an error when clicking on the object
"Word cannot edit the Microsoft Powerpoint 97 - 2003 presentation.

Any workaround for this?

the suite for mac and the suite for windows have different versions. windows
is a little behind so the mac users would need to have the comparable version
as the windows users.
