using .pcs clip art files with PowerPoint 2003

[wac]

How do I import clip art from earlier version of PowerPoint, that are *.pcs files, into the 2003 version

Hello,

Perhaps you mean *.pcx (PC Paintbrush) graphics formats?

Office 2003 no longer provides or includes support for importing *.pcx
images.

You can use any one of a number of 3rd party image conversion utilities to
convert your images to a format that is supported by Office 2003. I will
leave it to the other participants in this newsgroup to make specific
recommendations.

No, I am talking about the clip art libraries from early versions of PowerPoint they are all *.pcs files, and 2003 does not recognize them.

Hi,

Thanks for clarifying (and reminding me) about the origin of *.pcs files.

The Clip Organizer (Office XP and Office 2003) does not have the capability
to understand *.PCS clip collection files (which were last included in
Office 95).
