It works OK as long as everyone uses a fairly recent version of PowerPoint. So far we seem to be growing old gracefully. :-) The only problem I have noticed was that, after sending various versions of the files around as attachments, one of Ursula's graphics developed a case of the jaggies. I'm not sure how or why. We fixed the problem by copying the graphic from an earlier file and re-pasting it into the newer version.
