PowerPoint 2000 does not allow you to password protect your
presentations. You can password protect VBA projects that are a part of your
presentation, but not the presentation itself.
This is done to
maintain file compatibility with PowerPoint 97 and PowerPoint 98, which also
does not support password protection.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
