Powerpoint 2004 won't open ever since installation of Snow Leopard??

Version: 2004
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
Processor: Intel

I have never had a problem with Microsoft Office on my computer until I installed Snow Leopard. I did install Rosetta and the rest of the office programs work. However, when I try to open Powerpoint it freezes up before I can try to open a file. If I open a file without first opening the program, it opens up a file window then freezes. Could this be something to do with Snow Leopard, or just a coincidence? Is this a known issue?

You'll find comprehensive information here which may be applicable even
though you aren't experiencing problems with the Entire Office Suite.

FWIW, I'd first try the steps of: 3/a Repair Disk Permissions, 4/2
pertaining to Font Book & then Shut Down - wait a minute or two before you
power up again.

Thank you for the response, however the link you posted does not lead me to anything. I get "the requested URL was not found on this server."

Don't know what the problem is - it works fine from here but some ISPs have
difficulty accessing some servers. Try this one:

Then click the white "Blog" link in the navigation bar in the extreme upper
right corner of the page.
