Is there any solution for the 'Microsoft Visual Basic File Not Found' error in PowerPoint 2000

Microsoft Powerpoint is complete bundle of Microsoft applications. Which is loaded with lots of features and tools which help you in creating exclusive presentations in less time. If macros are used with powerpoint presentations then it automates the tedious and repetitive task. At times, you may encounter problem accessing the content of a PowerPoint presentation containing macros. This could happen only when files get corrupt due to power fluctuations, abrupt system shutdown or corrupt code in macros. To get over such problems, it is necessary to recover Powerpoint presentation by employing various strategies. Still this doesn't work around the problem then you must use backup copy of the presentation file to access the data. However, if no backup is available or no strategy works, then immediately opt for a third-party PowerPoint repair software.

Consider a scenario, wherein,you select a slide from either the Slide sorter or Outline views and then click Copy on the Edit menu, you may receive the following error message:

"Microsoft Visual Basic
File Not Found"

As a result of the above error message, you are unable to copy the slide.

Cause
The above behavior is seen if your presentation contains at least one macro, and the code in that macro is corrupt. This causes presentation file to become corrupt, resulting in data inaccessibility.

Resolution
In order to fix the problem and remove the macros from the affected presentation, you must try the following PPT recovery steps:

Save the presentation in an earlier format
1.Open the presentation which displays symptoms
2.Go to File menu, click Save As
3.Type a new name in the File Name box
4.If you are using a Windows version of PowerPoint, then click PowerPoint 95 on the Save As Type list. If you are using a Macintosh version, click PowerPoint 4.0 presentation on the Save As Type list.
5.Click Save
6.Close the affected presentation and open the new copy

This particular method has its own share of advantages and disadvantages. While advantage being it is easy to use, the disadvantage is that if you presentation contains elements (animation, transition effects, gradients etc) which are not supported in the earlier version of PowerPoint, those elements can change.

Alternatively, in order to recover presentation successfully, you must download a professional ppt recovery software from the Internet. Such tools repair corrupt ppt files in an efficient manner and restores all their components.
