PPT file created with PowerPoint 2007 is not currently supported
"PPT file created with PowerPoint 2007 is not currently supported"
You are seeing this error because this PPT file was created by Office 2007.
Note that this is different to a PPTX file created by Office 2007 (it's native format), or a PPT file created by a version of PowerPoint prior to 2007. These two file formats are supported.
The problem is that the "97-2003 compatible" PPT files created by Office 2007 are NOT in the same format as older PPT files and also not in the PPTX format. They are internally a hybrid of the PPT and PPTX format. Although they may work in older versions of PowerPoint, they do not work in many third party tools (and even some of Microsoft's). This format is not currently supported because Microsoft is unable to provide documentation for it.
So the currently available solutions to index these files is to either:
1) Resave these files as native PPTX files using Office 2007
2) Resave these files as native PPT files using an older Office version.
Dear Sir,
When I use the office 2000 to resave the file "97-2003 compatible" ppt file, it still cannot be indexing. It still show the "PPT file created with PowverPoint 2007 is not currently supported".
