    - Powerpoint 2003:Missing Images I have created 4 Chapters of Photo and Sound Images (460 Images in Each Chapter) using Powerpoint 2003. The problem I have is, when using Powerpoint 2003 to view the Presentations, about every 5th to 12th Image is missing on screen. Since this problem presented itself in Powerpoint, I also notice that Emailed PPSs miss some Images. This problem does not happen if I use Microsoft Powerpoint 2003 Viewer to view files outside of Powerpoint 2003 itself. I have also determined that the problem does not present itself when the same Presentation Files are run on other PCs or Laptops. In an effort to identify the cause of this problem I have tested with Graphics Accelleration both on and off and various settings for Accelleration. No improvement. I have changed out and increased DDR400 Memory to max of 4 Gb, I have performed a Windows Repair Install and Un-Installed Graphics Card Driver and Installed current version Driver 93.71, all to no avail, missing Images still persist. My PC specs: MB = Gigabyte GA-81PE775 Pro, CPU = Intel P4 3.0GHz, RAM = 4Gb DDR 400, Video = GeForce MX 4000 93.71 Driver, HDD = SATA 500Gb, OS = XP Pro SP2 + Updates, Application = Office 2003 SP3 + Updates, AVG AntiVirus and AVG AntiSpyWare. Can anyone Please advise if my Hardware can be contributing to this problem in any way or any other pertinent information that may assist in resolving this problem. Thank You, Owen Carlton Tag: Can I create a broken bar chart for the larger values in Powerpoin Tag: 386498

    - MCI error - mp3s randomly stop working; reinstalled WMP11 but noth Would love some help here. I have PPT 2003 and XP sp2. Using this set-up I have created many ppt presos with media in them and they have all worked fine. Up until now that is. Now I am getting this MCI error ("The specified file cannot be played on the specified MCI device. blah blah.."). The offending media in question is an mp3 I have run mplayer2.exe (WMP6?) and mp3s will not work there either, the error being "The source filter for this file could not be loaded. (Error=80040241)". The same mp3s work fine though in every other application I've tried (WMP11, Winamp, RM). So does this mean the problem is not the codecs? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing WMP11 I don't know how many times. I have also uninstalled pretty much every program I can think of that could potentially be causing a codec clash, including: - Winamp - Real Player - Samsung PC Studio + any other programs I saw which had anything to do with multimedia (exlc. VLC and PowerDVD) I have never downloaded and installed a codec pack, rogue or otherwise. To be honest until today I didn't even know what a codec was. The number of character in the file path is well less than 100 too. I would be most grateful for any advice as honestly I am at my wits end. I just don't understand how it could all work fine one day and now it doesn't. Kind regards Rob Tag: Can I create a broken bar chart for the larger values in Powerpoin Tag: 386495

    - PPT2003: Export of "attached" forms, files... Dear all, I am developing a PPT (2003) AddIn which contains quite a lot of files (forms, classes, modules...) meanwhile. For backup and repository purposes I usually export all of these files. Something I am looking for is automising this export. For now I have to click on each file, select "export", select the folder and save. This can be quite annoying for a lot of files (which I have). Is there an easier way - like a script or alike that automises this process? With regards, Martin. Tag: Can I create a broken bar chart for the larger values in Powerpoin Tag: 386494

    - changing where a task pane is displayed on the monitor screen I have Powerpoint 2003. I've been working right along on programs OK and when I click on "custom animation", the task pane has been displaying on the far right side of my monitor screen. Now all of a sudden the task pane (and other ppt task panes) display across the entire top of the monitor screen. I can't figure out what I did to change how task panes display and I have been unable to change it back so that the task panes display along the far right side again. HELP!

    - slide transitions w/ custom animation I have a ppt presentation w/ custom animation set for five-second intervals automatically. However, after the last graphic or text box appears, the slide transitions nearly instantaneously to the next slide. I have the slide transitions set for five seconds throughout the entire presentation. Is there an easy way to slow down the transition or do I need to go back and reset each slide transition one at a time?

    - Keyboard activation in Presentation mode Is it possible without vba to have an action button behave as a keyboard keystroke? For example, I create an "A" key; in presentation mode someone clicks the key and it prints out an "A". Will I need to use activex buttons instead? I thought about pure trigger animation and building the characters myself through custom animation but that seemed too tedious... I also want to build a working ppt or pptx calculator in the same fashion but have come across the same problem... Any suggestions?

    - Motion Path Accuracy I'm just starting to use motion paths to develop some animations, and I'm having trouble making them accurate enough to keep my objects aligned. For example, say I have a group of four boxes (upper left, upper right, lower left, lower right) that form a grid. I want to show those boxes moving around to show a particular reordering of data that I'm illustrating, but when the boxes come to their final resting places in the same grid, they are not well lined up because the motion paths don't seem to "snap" to where I'm wanting the boxes to move (meaning, the end points of the paths are not in the right place). Are there tricks to making accurate paths? I've found the same disappointment in general when working with freeforms - I don't know how to put the points exactly where I want them when drawing or editing.

    - Copy Excel data to a large table in a ppt slide I have a large data table in power point, the content of which mainly comes from excel spreadsheet. I cannot use copy and paste as the table doesn't exist in excel. I want to build a vba to copy data from excel to power point directly whenever there is an update.

    - Stretching WordArt In PPT2003 you could stretch text vertically or horizontally - but in 2007 it seems that this function no longer exists - but essentially treats all text the same - it maintains the proportions of the fonts.

    - Hardware acceleration in 2007 I've had PPT 2007 installed on two very powerful laptops but find that hardware acceleration just doesn't work like it did in 2003. With HA enabled the result is the same on both computers: Problem #1: the object animations do not play out in the slide preview - everything just appears (but play correctly with HA off) Problem #2: when playing the slideshow HA has no affect on the speed whatsoever - and is sometimes even slower. Problem #3: all the object animations are slower with much faster computers in PPT 2007 than they were with slower computers in PPT 2003 It seems that MS has managed to just break the hardware acceleration function between versions. I can't be the only one who has this problem.

    - Macro won't run in slideshow view I am in the process of making a game for a meeting resembling Wheel of Fortune. I was planning on creating a macro for each of the letters of the alphabet so that when clicking on the letter it automatically poplulates the letter in the puzzle. The macro will run if i run it from clicking on tools/macro/macro and clicking run, but they won't work when i add them in the action setting for the slide show. I've tried both action buttons and just text and adding the new action setting so that on click it runs the macro, but they won't run. It underlines the text so i know it recognizes that there is an action associated with it, but when i click on it from the slideshow, it won't run. What am i doing wrong!?!?! I've also tried changing my security to low, but that doesn't make it work either. :( Tag: Can I create a broken bar chart for the larger values in Powerpoin Tag: 386424

I cannot figure out how to get it actually embedded so that only the .pptx file has to be moved. I am also not interested in the "package for CD" option.
