I just tried opening that file in Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer 2007.  It
failed with this error message:

'PowerPoint Viewer cannot open the file "PHS3_PRO.PPT" because the file
was created in a PowerPoint version that the Viewer does not support.

PowerPoint Viewer supports files created in PowerPoint 97 and later.'


It looks to me like you've got a corrupted file.


I'm not so sure of that. I still have MS Office 97 installed on my machine, and it opened the file just fine.


Please respond only to the mail list ([email protected]) and not

It look like it is a version of PP earlier that 97. Please open it with MS Office 97 and do a save as and change the format to Powerpoint 97 and then try opening it with OpenOffice.
