Check Compatibility
The new
file format in Office 2007 offers several features that are not
available in earlier versions of PowerPoint. Older software just
doesn't have the code to read it right. You need to check your
presentation to make sure that it is compatible with PowerPoint
2003.
Try it:
Run Compatibility Checker
Go to
Office -> Prepare.
Select:
Run Compatibility Checker.
What Do
You See? In this example, the Compatibility Checker did not find
any issues with this simple slide show. I'm guessing that you might
see some red flags if you get into the new toys, such as SmartArt.
We'll come back to this discussion, again.
