power point

[Learning]

I have Vista and can't find power point!! I can find the viewer but how do I
open the power point application program?

This newsgroup is for Office for Mac only; you might be better off asking
your question in a Vista-specific newsgroup. Having said that, I doubt that
the answer you are going to be given in there will be any different from
mine:

Vista and PowerPoint are two entirely unrelated products. PowerPoint is part
of Microsoft Office, which is a separate application suite that does not
come automatically with the operating system. In other words, if you only
own a copy of Vista but no copy of Microsoft Office, you do not have
PowerPoint and you will need to buy it if you intend to use it.

The PowerPoint viewer is a standalone viewer application that can be
downloaded for free. It allows you to *view* PowerPoint presentations, but
that's about it.

Vista is the most recent version of the Microsoft Windows *operating
system*. It does not include the MS Office applications - of which
PowerPoint is one. MS Office (or PowerPoint itself) must be purchased
separately.

As the others said, PPT viewer is stand alone application, which
enables you to read PPT presentation. Either you need to buy office or
you can download just the viewer here for free:

you can just read the presentations, you will not be able to do any
changes.
