How to Open XML files

[Steve]

My friend sent me a zip file that was exported as a pptx.zip. The files are
all XML files. I do I open the presentation when all I have is PPT-2003?

Delete the .zip from the file name so it just ends in .pptx

Then make sure you install the compatibility pack on your 2003 machine.

Wow. Dunno *what* caused that bizarre spacing.

Let's try that again.


Delete the .zip from the file name so it just ends in .pptx

Then download and install the compatibility pack for Office 2003.

The compat pack should allow you to open the PPTX file with PPT 2003.
