MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / January 2007Was PP Ever Bundled?
Was Power Point ever bundeld with Microsoft Works or Word or any other Microsoft Application? Or was it always a seperate application? The reason for the question is that a friend insists that the Power Point (not just the reader) application was included with his other software. But, he can't find it! I told him "in very simple words" that he will have to spend money to get Power Point. Am I right? Or (please NO!) is he? If may have been bundled with "Office" which would include Word.

AFAIK there is no bundle with Works AND PowerPoint. Those basic preinstalled versions very often do not contain PowerPoint. To make sure: Have him find his installation CDs and check those. Best regards, Ute  SignatureUte Simon Microsoft PowerPoint MVP Team und PowerPoint-User-Team Tipps, Tricks und Kostenloser Newsletter: www.ppt-user.de What I have seen bundled with Works on OEM machines (frequently) is the PPT Viewer. To make it more confusing, many of the bigger OEMs don't make if very clear that you are getting the Viewer, not the full product, so people get confused. I would count that as him being confused, and you both being right - He did see PPT on his computer, but not the full product. To get the full product, he will need to buy Office.
