------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed May 17 06:51:47 -0700 2006 ------- I downloaded the .PPS file from an AOL E-mail to my desktop but found I have no program to open it on my Dell with Windows 98se. Same day I saw an article about OpenOffice software and downloaded/installed it to see if I could open PowerPoint (.PPT) files (thought the .PPS was .PPT. Before downloading it I tried to download only the Impress function but didn't use the options menu properly and all functions downloaded. OpenOffice software opened and it seemed all of the different functions would work OK starting from scratch but when I doubleclicked on the .PPS file on the desktop, the OOo started to open but then I got the Crashrep error. I removed the OpenOffice software and reinstalled it again not using the download options, same problem. I removed all functions but the Impress but I still get the Crashrep error when OOo (Impress) starts to open after doubleclicking the .PPS file. I E-mailed the .PPS file to a Dell laptop with Windows XP and it opened fine using a Presentations 12 Show by Corel program (don't have PowerPoint). Presentations 12 Show saved it as a .SHW file. I saved it as a .PPT file and E-mailed it back to the Windows 98 desktop in both .PPT and .SHW - still get the Crashrep error when OOo starts to open either one. "Do you select the Microsoft file types to open with OOo during the installation?" Do not know what you mean. Seems like after the Crashrep, OOo tried to "fix" the file, at one point a large list of file types came up. I don't think I ever selected any file types for OpenOffice to open, don't remember. If I did I might have selected .PPT, don't think there was a .PPS or .SHW selection.
