Unable to export visualization to Powerpoint

[Gary Winer]

Since the last MS Office update about 3 weeks ago, I am no longer to export any visualizations to Powerpoint. Spotfire will not recogize that a Powerpoint file is open, and is unable to export to a new Powerpoint file. Is this unique to me

Spotfire Desktop 7.11.0 LTS

Error message: Could not execute tool 'To Microsoft PowerPoint...'.

Hi Gary

Are you running office in 32 bit mode

If you check the task manager you will see "(32 bit)" after the power point process

[Gary Winer]

Yes Stefan, it is in 32 bit mode.

 

Is that good or bad
