Convert from powerpoint 2007 to 2003

[Sherri D.]

I did a slide presentation for a school project on Powerpoint 2007. I had to
save as 2003 version to send to my teacher. I opened this on a computer with
the 2003 version and my outline does not show up. The slides are there but
the outline is not. If I try to type the outline in it types over the slides
that are already there. Is there something I can do so that my outline will
be visible? I was hoping I didn't have to do this over in 2003 version. I
have never used either version so I really don't know much about either one.
thanks

For PowerPoint 2007 and 2003 have different format structure. If you save
2007 pptx file to ppt, some elements may be destroyed. For flash slide show
can obtain the powerpoint slide show structure and animations , transitions,
You can convert PowerPoint 2007 presentation to Flash to solve this problem.
Here is the tool:

I don't think this was caused by the conversion. Please make sure that the
computer with PPT 2003 gets all Updates, Service Pack 2 should solve the
problem.

Best regards,

Sherri,
My guess is that Steve's fix is what you need. But just to clarify:

If you save a 2007 file to the 97-2003 version, things won't be destroyed -
but some items will be frozen.

In many cases, you really don't even need to back save the file. There is a
converter available for PPT 2002 and PPT 2003 that will let those versions
open the new file structure. You might ask your teacher if they can download
the converters to the school computers.
