Hi Everyone,

I have been using Microsoft Powerpoint for logging the construction time on
my project. It works great, it's very easy, and if you already have Office,
it doesn't cost any extra! The pages can be sent to a printer, e-mailed to
my friends, and I can push a button and burn the entire project to a disk.
the disk can be played on my DVD player, I can present the project on the
projector at EAA meetings, etc. It's cheap, and doesn'tr require a large
learning curve. The pages can be made to look alike. Text can be placed on
the page in any color or type. Pages can be put in any arrangement. It's
perfect for our use as builders.

I would be happy to share my Powerpoint pages with anyone that wants them.
Right now the file is 4 meg, so if you have DSL or cable I can send them to
you by E-mail. I can also help you design your own if you want.

The nice thing about Powerpoint is that even if the recipient doesn't have
Offive 2003 or better, the files can be read on a Windows 98 or better
computer.

You can download a free PowerPoint 2003 viewer from Microsoft:

http://tinyurl.com/3nend

There are also links at the bottom of that page to free viewers for
Microsoft Word 2003, Excel 2003 and PowerPoint 2007.

There was a product which compressed PowerPoint documents - it was called
"Pointless" Smile

For those of you that do not have MS Office, and would like a fully featured FREE version of powerpoint, check out http://www.openoffice.org

Open office is essentially a MS office clone written and maintained by the open source community. It has a clone of Word and Excel too.

It is compatible up to MS Office 2003.

Joe - I'd like to see it. My email is pwhoyt(at)yahoo.com

Are you the guy with the red & white HDS that I was talking to at Oshkosh last year?

We joked that there should be an award for "shortest distance traveled" because the HDS was hangered across the field and just had to taxi over to the hombuilt display area. Smile
