I have students saving their powerpoint presentations to
a Win2k file server from Win98 clients. Totally randomly
the file FILENAME.PPT is saved along with a PPTxxxx.TMP
(x's are random numbers)file.
The .PPT file is corrupt and trying to open results in
a "PowerPoint can't open the type of file represented by
\\Server\User\BlaBla\Filename.ppt" error message. I then
rename the PPTxxxx.TMP to PPTxxxx.PPT and their work
opens fine.
The TMP file has a later time stamp than the PPT file so
we do have the latest version.
This is random. Some students have no problems. All
clients are ghosted the same. Fast save was removed from
Options in PowerPoint with no resulting change.
Any ideas?
Thanks
