how can I get a power point on 2007 work on office 2003

[PleaseHelp]

I have Office 2003 and I did a Power Point at school on 2007. I was told
that all I had to do was download a file that would convert the PP from 2007
to 2003. The download got me a little further but it is telling me that the
text wasn't converted. I need to figure this out now because it is due on
Tuesday and I need the weekend to work on it! PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN : )

Thanks

Hi, PleaseHelp,

There is not a PowerPoint 2003 to automatically "convert" 2007 files, but
there is a compatibility pack that allows you to open, edit and save 2007
files in Office 2003 applications:

I'm assuming that's what you're talking about.

If you have a font on one computer that is not on the other, there might be
problems converting the presentation exactly as you created it on the
original computer.

If that doesn't help, please post the exact error message you are seeing,
which will help others diagnose the issue.

Otherwise, you might want to post to one of the PowerPoint groups where
there are folks familiar with the intricacies of that program, as well as
compatibility issues between the versions.
