Can I view a powerpoint presentation created on office 2003 on office 2000?

Question

I created a powerpoint presentation on MS Office 2003, but now I need to move it to a computer that has Office 2000. I can't install 2003 and i don't want to lose all the effects i used. How do i manage that?

Answer 1

Office 2003 uses an file extension ".pptx".In order to view it in Office 2000, You need to save it in Office 2000 format(*.ppt) .You can do this by going to the file menu,selecting Save as and saving it in Office 2000 format.  

Answer 2

You can save your PowerPoint as 97-2003 presentation.

But you may lose the effects you have added to 2003.

In order to get a good quality, you can burn your PowerPoint to DVD or convert it to video.

Then you will be able to view your presentation without the need of PowerPoint.You only need to insert a dvd disc, and everything will be OK.
