PowerPoint Viewer feature limitations

[Nelson]

What PowerPoint2002 features work with PowerPoint viewer
amd which do not? Which PP2002 features are not accepted
by PowerPoint viewer?

 

[Sonia]

There's a list of the new stuff in PowerPoint 2002 at
http://www.echosvoice.com/ under Gotcha's, I think. That will tell you a
lot.

Remember, a new Viewer will be release later this year and the problems will
go away. Also, if you open PowerPoint 2002 and go to Tools > Options > Edit
and disable the three items at the bottom, you won't have to worry about the
differences because you won't be allowed to use the new features. It's a
handy setting when designing a presentation that will need to be distributed
with the Viewer. However, turn the features off before you build the
presentation.

Oh, I just *love* the optimism! I really wish I could share in it, but
PowerPoint has broken my heart too many times...

Ha - bet you've only seen the pre-release beta code - the version BEFORE
they put all the bugs & gremlins in! >~~~

Phil,

You can see the new viewer for yourself at PowerPoint Live in October.
You're welcome to attend, and particularly to ask about "gremlins put into
it" <g>. If you're in the audience, it can be the first question asked
<vbg>.

I'd be *very* startled if there wasn't at least one PC in the help center
outfitted with it.

 

[Sonia]

And even a couple of sessions that just might demo it, right Glen? <G>

 

[Glen Millar]

Err, yes!

Probably you and me! Tuesday will be a *big* day.

Actually, now I know what *you* are doing:

Wow - a free invite! WayHay! No, wait, that isn't what you mean, is it?

Seriously, I'd love to come, if I could just get the funds together to
get there - it's been a bit of a quiet year over here, you see. If I
can't stow away in Adam's luggage I may have to mug him & steal all his
clothes...

....and shave off the beard...

....and lose a lot of weight...

...nah.


HEY! I could be a guest speaker! "PowerPoint Under Fire" or somesuch
<eg>
