Power Point 2006/2010

[Rod Serling]

My lad has to do a presentation at school. We only have PP 2006 at home, but they have PP2010 at school. PP2010 appears to be expensive to buy.

Are they boith compatible. Can he write a presentation on one, upload it on a USB key and plug it on for showing on the school's computer?

I'm a bit of a Luddite Dad, so please help me!

should be okay, but if he edits it in the 2010 version and saves it he will not be able to reopen in 2006 version.

Hmm, I do not recognise PowerPoint 2006. There was 2003, 2007 and 2010. Please confirm that you have MICROSOFT PowerPoint and, if so, which version you have...
