But the point is that you requested the file be locked up so that
it could not be altered. It does not matter whether a file is saved as
*.pps or *.ppt. It can still be opened in either MS Office or OOo and
be altered. The only difference between *.pps and *.ppt files is that
one will begin playing automatically when opened with MS Office. It
takes a lot more work and probably much more money to alter a flash
presentation.
