This isn't really a PPT question, it's more of an Office question.

thanks for your advice,the only thing is we didnt recieve the office disc
when we purchased the computer.i have contacted microsoft and they seem to
think it has been deleted yet the microsoft office folders are still in
program files and in all programs including all the things we have lost, but
a message comes up when you click on it,"microsoft power point has not been
installed for the current user.Please run setup to install the
application"hope you can help as i dont have a spare $300 to replace the disc
as the guy from microsoft quoted me today
Also Echo S i dont understand what you are telling me
thanks again
