Great idea, but in doing it that way, it seems to save the copy as suitable for all versions and made it 300+ Mb! So what if its on a CD, they are cheap and at least you can play it on any PC/Laptop. The reason for saying to put it on CD instead of the laptop is also for a backup -- what happens if the laptop fails at the wrong moment - every thing is lost. (and this can and does happen)	wainuitech (129)

If you don't mind I'm curious which option you tried of the three I suggested, or did they all not work? I'm assuming it's the Compress option that didn't reduce your file size by much? Saucy. Tried that. Simply didn't work.	Saucy (14844)
776061	2009-05-23 22:31:00	Hi, Saucy. I tried both of yours. The support tools installed OK, but PP2003 could not see the PP 2007 file. Tried the compression tool also, but made no appreciable difference. The viewer worked but in the context of when I tried Wainuitech's suggestion to 'package to CD'. It essentially created a PP2003 copy of the file and I wasn't really much better off. The key here, I believe, is the laptop only has limited resources and I was stretching it, unless I could make the presentation smnaller, which I did using Blam6's suggestion (File Minimiser). Cheers.	A Team (13613)
