If memory serves me correct the address is www.empowermentzone.com/palsetup.exe. If that doesn't work, try Www.empowermentzone.com and look for the text pal program on the website. If you open a powerpoint document with text pal, it should convert it. ________________________________ From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Shawn Keen Sent: 16 April 2007 07:10 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: powerpoint Hi Drew One thing I've done is saved the power point file as html and then cut out all the text.

Some of my classes in college have the lecture notes in PowerPoint format on the college web cite, and I'm wondering if there is a way I can access them. Any help is greatly appreciated.
