.pps is PowerPoint Slideshow and you need Microsoft Powerpoint to view that file.

thanks for your help have you any idea how i get microsoft powerpoint ?

 

[Karanislove]

You have to buy http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/FX100487411033.aspx?pid=CL100571081033 for that...

There is one Openoffice Org software as well, which is free and those who are using it saying that it is very good. I am not completly sure if it supports .pps extension or not but its worth a try before paying hundreds of dollars for MS Office...

 

[JohnLynn]

Buy it. Or get a trial version from Microsoft.

 

[Karanislove]

Yes....download the trail version and do ur stuff. Remove it when u r done :) But that will give u a mesage saying that you have a trail version and buy full version or so...
Get Openoffice and if it works then you will not have to go through the hassle of trail version.
