PowerPoint

When you use the Open dialog box or when you use a drag-and-drop operation to move the file into the version of PowerPoint that you are using, you receive the following error message:
PowerPoint can't read the outline from filename. No text converter is installed for this file type.
When you double-click the file in Windows Explorer, the file opens correctly.

To resolve this issue, install each update for your version of the Office PROGRAM.

IreneThe file itself may be corrupt...to test this send it as an attachment to someone with PowerPoint and see if they are able to open it.Others have been able to open it but I will try SENDING it maybe got corrupted throught my  system but
