Hi Sue

What size is the file? I would probably start by compressing the pictures as
they are probably bigger than they need to be (double click a picture -
picture tab - compress - apply to all pictures in document - ok). Do this
on a copy of your ppt in case you don't like the result :-) Oh and make sure
you have fast saves turned off (tools - options - save - untick allow fast
saves).

If that doesn't help try this:

If that does't help come back to us telling us how you added the pictures.

I am running PP 2003 and have a picture heavy presentation. When I open the
file and let all the pictures load, then start the slide show I loss some
picture at the end and the slide is blank. How do I fix this problem?
