I am using Powerpoint 2004 on a Mac and have to present it on a Windows
PC Powerpoint machine.  Can I do this and if so what file do I need to
save it as on my Mac?

Thanks

Control the things you can and Don't Worry about the things you can't
control.

I do this very often.   Powerpoint is WINTEL and MAC crossed platform.   No
need to save it differently.   Just carry a copy of your file you saved from
your Mac (on a disc or a USB drive, etc) and open it on a WINTEL machine.

True to a point.  There are likely to be some formatting differences,
and some image formats do not make the transition (especially if the
windows machine doesn't have Quicktime installed).

Always run through the presentation and fix any irregularities.

I do this all the time to share with my staff.  I am the only
"enlightened" mac person in my building.
