SUMMARY
You install Microsoft PowerPoint 2002 on the same computer with Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 or with Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007. Then, you install an add-in in PowerPoint 2002. When you do this, the add-in is also available to PowerPoint 2003 or to PowerPoint 2007.

The reverse is also true. When you install an add-in in PowerPoint 2003 or in Powerpoint 2007, the add-in is also available to PowerPoint 2002.



MORE INFORMATION
This behavior occurs because PowerPoint 2002, PowerPoint 2003, and PowerPoint 2007 share a common Add-ins folder. The location of the common Add-ins folder is as follows:

path\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns
