There's a bit of confusion here. The openoffice.org software is not Microsoft software. So you cannot download Microsoft programs from there. However, you can download the free openoffice.org software itself, which is very compatible with the file formats that Microsoft programs use. The OpenOffice software is a suite of programs for creating and editing word processing documents, spreadsheets, etc. Additionally, if all you really require is a program to *view* PowerPoint files (which I suspect your "panorama of Tennis" may be, but I guessing) then you can download and install the free Microsoft PowerPoint viewer program from the Microsoft site: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=428d5727-43ab-4f24-90b7-a94784af71a4&DisplayLang=en (If that does not work, then www.microsoft.com |Downloads|Office|PowerPoint Viewer 2003) -- Bob Long P.S.
