    Hello,

    You can read the files with this but you can't edit them until you get/purcahse the full version.

      You can edit with OpenOffice. 
      Start, OpenOffice.org, open a document, (do your editing)...
      Click File,Save as, Select Microsoft PowerPoint, click save.

       Saving as a Microsoft Office File
      1.Choose File - Save As.
      2.In the File type box, select a Microsoft Office file format.

      Saving Documents by Default in Microsoft Office Formats
      1.Choose Tools - Options - Load/Save - General.
      2.In the Standard file format area, first select a document type, then select the file type for saving.
      From now on, if you save a document, the File type will be set according to your choice. Of course, you still can select another file type in the file save dialog.
