PPT97: Files Saved in Outline View Open in Slide View (189815)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q189815 SYMPTOMS
When you open a PowerPoint version 2.0 through 4.0 presentation in
PowerPoint 97 for Windows, it always opens in Slide View. This happens
even if you were in Slide Sorter, Outline, Handout, or Title (PowerPoint
2.0 only) view when you saved the original presentation.
CAUSE
When you open an earlier version presentation in PowerPoint 97, it is
converted to PowerPoint for Windows 95 format. The converter always
changes the view of the presentation to Slide View. The reverse is also
true. When you save a presentation from PowerPoint 97 as a PowerPoint 4.0
presentation, it opens the PowerPoint 4.0 presentation in Slide View,
regardless of what view the presentation was saved in.
