Try to use OpenOffice.org Impress ("OOo version of PowerPoint").

> Hi Bhavani,
Thanks for responding, over the last year I have received 17 pps files
and cannot open with my windows XP, I sent them to a CD and put them in
a computer with Ubuntu OS, I used Open Office presentation, 2 opened
fine , all the others opened in a from of type, that I took to be
machine code, ( this morning I took them to a computer that has MS
Office, they all were fine. )
on the windows computer all files are marked pps but on the CD in Ubuntu
15 are marked eml or emi, 1 is unmarked and 1 is marked pps
Thanks Bruce
