2000 Small Business Edition CD, you may receive the following error message:
\PFILES\MSOFFICE\OFFICE\powerpnt.exe is not a valid
Win32 application CAUSE This error message occurs because PowerPoint 2000 is not
included with Office 2000 Small Business Edition. The Powerpnt.exe file on the

Installer script and is not the actual program file.STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
