to save a pps powerplay show, it says in HELP that we look in the list from
the 'save as' list but it does not show when i look for it.

help, please
 
When you get the file dialog box during a Save, you'll see a
downward pointing triangle on the same line as the file types. Just
click on that and one of the save types listed is .pps

Save your file as a pps instead of a ppt


That's all
 
Click File > Save As. Under save as type, click on the dropdown field. It's
located at the middle of the list. You will need to scroll down and look for
it until you find PowerPoint Show (.pps).

You can also just rename the .ppt file to .pps - there is a benefit to
this - when you want to edit the file after saving as a .pps you have to
open PowerPoint first. If you keep it as a .ppt file until you are ready to
use it then rename it to filename.pps where the .pps is the extension it
becomes a .pps file the only difference between a ,pps file and a .ppt file
is the extension when you double click the file to open it the file
extension dictates whether it opens to run or edit.

Have fun
