Apple, Viewer, "translate" disk from PC 2002 version

[Pdek]

Does anybody know about making a disk to be used for
an Apple?
I've made a disk that is used by my students. It's got about 20 main
PPT shows, with lots of MP3 audio, links to spreadsheets, the web,
other PPT files. Autostart. I use PPT Viewer (2003), because not everybody
has PPT on their computers and the files are
written in PPT 2002.
Now somebody asks if they can use it on an Apple. I wouldn't think so,
but can I transfer, translate, or re-do it so that it can be used on an Apple.
I don't have an Apple but might figure out how to get one with a CD burner
and start my Apple knowledge from the beginning.

Thaks for any help and Merry Christmas.

Thanks, sounds just slightly easier than I thought it would be!
I'm assuming that there's no way around the 97 viewer
There's a good bit of animation, including triggers in the shows.

I don't think there's a newer viewer for the Mac, Pete, but I'm not sure.

At any rate, I was just going to suggest that you ask the student which
version of PPT he uses on his Mac. If he has the most recent, the Viewer may
not be an issue.

You are right, Echo, there isn't a newer version of the Viewer for the Mac.
It should also be kept in mind that if the student is running Mac OS/X, the
older Mac Viewer won't work there either.
