All

Our dppt has stopped working on two machines.  Both are running 
Win2000 with office XP ,all ugrades and patches are current.

When starting dppt as server or client, ppt starts but does not start 
the presentation.  Below a copy of the command window.  An 
"Unspecified error"  is not a lot of help.  Has anyone run into this 
problem?  Our config.bat file is ok.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
