I am having the same trouble that Shirl had with her PowerPoint. I put a
password to open and a different password to modify and now I cannot close PowerPoint Presentation without taking off the passwords. I have downloaded all the updates for Microsoft 2003. Can Anyone help me? |

I don't see Shirl's post, so can you tell us what happens when you try to
close PPT without taking off the passwords? -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "Rach" wrote in message ...

Do you get an error message?

No, I don't get an error message. Nothing happens. It doesn't save and it
doesn't exit out. "Echo S" wrote: Do you get an error message?

Also, when I put a password to open and a different one to modify, I do it
in Tools | Options | Security. Clicking OK there doesn't close the presentation, it just adds the passwords. When I click the X in the upper right corner of the window to close PPT (and, therefore, the open presentation), I'm prompted to save the file and I can do so. I guess I'm having trouble understanding the steps you're taking to add the passwords, save the file, and where the save (or exit) fails. I seem to recall some weird issues with roaming profiles, which is why I keep asking about that. I also seem to recall some issues if you change the encryption strength for passwords when you go to Tools | Options | Security | Advanced. What have you chosen there? (You may also find this under File | Save As, then click Tools in the Save As dialog and choose Security Options | Advanced.) -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ "Echo S" wrote in message ...
