    Powerpoint 2003: how to jump to # when using presenter tool

    I don't think the Presenter feature offers this. You might want to look at PowerShow add-in at http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html - it enables you to do that.

    Emailing a "self-executing" Powerpoint

    A .pps file and a .ppt file are the same except the filename extension. A .pps file opens directly in slide show. If you rename the file to .ppt, it will open in slide design mode. So, they should be of same size unless you have FastSaves turned ON. You might want to look at the following...

    Print PowerPoint Slides with animation

    This has been removed from PowerPoint 2002 (XP) onwards. PowerPoint 2002 introduced a large number of animations, motion paths, interactive animations, etc. So, they removed the print with animations probably because it may not make sense any longer.
