Can I password protect my .ppt presetation from edited but
still allow it to be printed as a hard copy?

Thanks

Hello,

This is already the way that password protection behaves in PowerPoint 2002
and PowerPoint 2003 (the two versions of PowerPoint for Windows which have
password protection capabilities). If you do not have the modify password
for a presentation you can open it Read-Only and, in that mode, you will be
able to print the presentation.
