What do you mean "I cannot save my slideshows that i create"? Do mean
that you are able to save the PowerPoint, but it is not coming up in
Slide Show View, or do you mean that you can't save anything at all? If
you mean the former, you should know that it is all one file, but you can
choose Save As from the File menu and choose for the Save As type
"PowerPoint Show (*.pps)." This doesn't really change the file, but it
sets it to automatically go into to Slide Show view when someone double-
clicks on the file.

If you mean the latter, perhaps your version of PowerPoint has a problem.
Go to the Help menu and choose Detect and Repair. Also go to the Help
menu and choose Check for Updates.

Write back if you are still having a problem or if I totally
misunderstood your question.
