I have received a few ppt files from MAC users and I am unable to open the
file using Office 2007. When I double click the file the presentation file
attempts to load but fails. NO error message received!!!
I was able to find out a work around by asking a colleague to test the file,
fortunately they were able to open the file with Office 2003 and when they
save the file I was then able to also open using Office 2007.

Has anyone experienced and or resolved this issue?

Thx,
Richard
 
May be an older version of Mac. Ask the sender to add a .ppt extension to the
file name.

You could also try this at your end before opening the file.
