Risk Management CD - Powerpoint Presentation
 

Hey. I got the CD but can't open the Powerpoint presentations. Let me know if there is a trick, lol.

The first screen has a single word in a foreign language..no..not squirrel chatter, lol.

Sharon's cover letter refers to a Password screen but I didn't get that.

I like the new form!

maybe you should call headquarters and let them know!

Lynn, double check that your computer already has the program that allows you to run Powerpoint if you haven't already done so already.

I say this because I tried opening up a ppt file I had to watch for lecture and I discovered that my laptop didn't have a ppt program. I had to DL MS Office onto my system. :mad:

Thanks, Sandy. My computer says I have PP, lol. I was able to open it up to what looked like a PP screen with a garbled title at the top, the notes block at the bottom and the index on the side.

Oh well.. thankfully the word docs work, lol.

Will keep trying.

I get the same thing Lynn, but can open the .rtf versions with no problem at home. I am using Office 97 at home. I was going to try it on Office XP at work to see if it makes a difference. If you have an older version of Office than it was created in, it can be a problem sometimes. I think the .rtf versions have the same information on them so you can make overheads from them if needed.

I think Sharon's letter talked about having open your Power Point software FIRST, and then attempt to "open" the file that's on the CD. I did this and don't have a problem (miracle... I'm usually pretty bad at accessing, saving files, etc.).

Thanks. I did that too, lol. Will try some other time.

Dropped off the forms at the hall. The RM Coordinator appreciated them!:D
