Default PowerPoint 2003

You can't save as 97-2003 & 95 from 2003 SP3 or later versions and do not
need to in nearly every situation unless the recipient uses 95 which is
fairly unlikely. To save in a 97-2003 format either choose that from 2007 or
save a a PowerPoint Presentation *.ppt from 2003

I used the trial version of Office 2007 with my new computer. I wasn't
thrilled with PP when it came to macros. After the trial ended I used Open
Office.org (didn't solve the macros issue - I have "games" for my students to
play), but at least I could use Word and Excel type programs. I discovered I
had one more installation of Student & teacher 2003. I installed it. Word
and Excel run fine. PP opens fine as for a new file, but existing files do
not open in PP. They open in openoffice.org . If I try to save the PP as
2003 it says it's not supported and won't. Any suggestions?
