pps picture format
Hi All:
A Friend keeps sending me pictures in a pps format, but I don't have anythng that will open them, I can't even find anything at any of the download sites that opens pps stuff, is there such a format, and if so, where can I download the program or utility? Your help will be very much appreciated, and thanks ahead of time. Bill Lane |

Hi Bill Lane,
If I remember correctly, a .pps file is a Microsoft PowerPoint slide show file. Hope that helps.

It a Powerpoint slideshow program. You would need MS Powerpoint to open it.

You should be able to download a free Powerpoint viewer from Microsoft.

Thanks
Thanks Glc:
I did just that. Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer 97, PPVIEW32.EXE. Work great, got to view all my friends pictures. I'm just wondering if I'll ever find use for it other than this one guy that sends pictures in this pps format? Thanks again, Bill Lane |

I would personally ask him to send you files in another format. There are quite a few Powerpoint viruses out there.
