Trouble opening Power Point file sent by e-mail

[jbrahms]

I have a Power Point document I use often at work. When I send this to my
home as an e-mail attachment, or put it on a flash drive for use at home, my
home PC (Windows XP professional) can't open it. Error message is
(approximately): "Power Point cannot open [name of file].............". My
Power Point Program on the home PC is working fine. Question: could this be
due to macros in the document? Could home firewall or anti-virus (both
Norton) be blocking?
Thanks,
jbrahms

Firewall and anti-virus might have something to do with your problem,
but sometimes if PowerPoint file is too big, that situation happens, so
you can consider to convert your bulky PowerPoint Presentation to flash
or any smaller formats
