Problem with Powerpoint Viewer
[Forwarded to PowerPoint newsgroup via crosspost]
Florence wrote: I hope someone can help me with this. I've been trying to sort it out by myself for weeks but obviously need more experienced help. I was using Powerpoint Viewer 97 and decided to upgrade to 2003 or 2007. I deleted Version 97 and downloaded Version 2007, which wouldn't work. I have tried a number of times to delete it and redownload Version 2003 or 2007 but I get the same message for both, as follows: "This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer patch package". The only answer I can provide is that I downloaded it from the Microsoft Download site. Unfortunately I haven't the vaguest idea of where to find the other information. I would appreciate whatever help you can provide, hopefully with a simple solution, as I now have a large number of Powerpoint emails I would very much like to open. Thanks in advance for your help with this problem. Florence |
