Power Point Pack and Go

When I work on a presentation and pack it to take home and work on at
home...Pack and Go displays it as a slide show. I need to be able to work on
the presentation at home....I thought I had the same version of powerpoint on
both computers. Any ideas????

Do you have PowerPoint installed at home? Just open PowerPoint and then open
the file to edit it.

If you don't have PowerPoint at home, you're out of luck. Pack and Go can
include the PowerPoint Viewer, but it does not allow you to transport the full
application.

When you run Pack and Go it creates two files - - PRES0.PPZ and PNGSETUP.EXE.
PNGSETUP.EXE is used to unpack the contents of PRES0.PPZ. You need to unpack
the presentation files before you can do anything with them.

I have unpacked it....but all it unpacks is the preso.ppz and
pngsetup.exe....nothing else. Then powerpoint says it cannot open these
files.

Did you run pngsetup.exe? Double click on it.

What happens when you tell it where you want the files unpacked? Any messages?
Have you looked in that location? Is your presentation there? If so, open
PowerPoint and go to File Open and browse to the unpacked folder and select
your presentation.

It says that it cannot open the file...PREZ.PPZ or cannot open PNG.....So
when I navigate to the folder from Power Point...it just says cannot open the
file. I am so frustrated...I even paid for support and then got disconnected
and now they arent open.

It sounds like your pack and go at work maybe didn't complete correctly.
PowerPoint can't open the .PPZ file, so that won't work.

If you have WinZip (http://www.winzip.com/) you can try to open it with WinZip.
Open WinZip, go to File Open Archive and browse to the .PPZ file and select
it. If it isn't corrupt, it will open and then you can go to Actions Extract.
