Thanks Kathy. I remember seeing the link in previous discussion, will look it up later. Have never had a need for the viewer, but then, neither did I have a need to make movies to put in a powerpoint before yesterday . . . :) Below worked great, that will enable me to utilize the pack and go method to get the presentation correctly to the end user. Thank you both again, Cathy "Kathy Jacobs" <jacobskl@xxxxxxxxxx To: <mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> atwork.com> Sent by: cc: mso-bounce@freelists .org Subject: [mso] Re: PowerPoint 2002: Inserted Movie 05/06/2004 12:01 PM File Location Please respond to mso ..... Cathy, PnG actually creates two files, the PPZ file and a copy of PNGSETUP.EXE. The EXE is the file that contains the extract information. If you don't have a copy of the PNGSETUP, you can still open the PPZ file in one of two ways: 1) Create another Pack-n-go and copy the PNGSETUP.EXE to where your original PPZ file is. Double click the PNGSETUP.EXE and it will find and open your PPZ. 2) Use WinZip to open the PPZ. If I had actually read your subject line, I would have warned you earlier: If you use PnG from 2002 and include the viewer, it will include the old viewer. This viewer will NOT run the animations, etc. that are new in 2002. In order to see these from a Viewer, you need to get the 2003 Viewer. Let me know if you need the link to it...

How do you open it on another machine? I created one to test and can't seem to open it. It sounds like the solution, but not sure what I'm doing, thanks again. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
