Hi
Am new to using XP and I have the Home edition on my
laptop. But I cannot find Powerpoint??
Is it even included in the Home edition, or is it only in
the Professional edition?
Stoooopid question I know, but do Microsoft allow you to
download it from their webiste as an upgrade? I've
allready looked and can't find it?
Thanks guys
Shaun

Shaun;
Power Point is not an upgrade and it is not available for download.
Power Point as well as other Microsoft Office components have never
been included in any operating system.
Many computer venders have including them.

If you want Power Point, you need to buy it:

Greetings --

Neither the Microsoft Office application suite, nor any of its
individual component applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint,
Access,Outlook, etc.), have _ever_ been "part" of *any* Windows
operating system. They are, and always have been, separate
applications, that must be purchased and installed separately.

1) Go to store/shop that sells computer software.

2) Purchase the either the stand-alone version of PowerPoint or the
Microsoft Office suite of your choice.

3) Return home.

4) Insert installation CD in PC's CD drive and follow the on-screen
prompts and instructions to install application and desired additional
features.

Hi I know this isn't a reply but I could work out how to write a question.
Does anyone know why my computor won't let me copy powerpoint files to my
re-writer, it keeps saying files on this drive are 'read only' and then
states that this is on the 'd' drive. The files themselves are not read only

Powerpoint is part of the Microsoft Office suite, not part of the XP
operating system (or any other).
