Mac Forum / Applications / PowerPoint / March 2006

Hello

I have been working on a PowerPoint presentation for 11 hours, with autosave
every 10 minutes, then at the last save the file was corrupted and it will
no longer open. Thus I have lost one day¹s work.

I was working on a Mac using Panther. Is there any way I can access any
temporary file (normally invisible) in case there is another file (a sort of
backup) which I may be able to recover some of the work I have lost.

It is a pity that PowerPoint does not have a backup facility as Word (and
Quark) does.

I have been using PowerPoint for over decade on both Macs and PCs and this
is the first time that a file has corrupted on me.

Thanks for any help

Sol
