Convert pps into ppt files to edit them

Do you also receive some of these great pps screen presentations, which you want to integrate into your powerpoint presentations? In the past I always searched for a way to access these charts of these self running slideshows.

Now I found a very simple way to do this:
Just change the extension of the file from *.pps to *.ppt, by renaming it.
This is all you have to do to convert the file into a regular powerpoint file, which you can edit.

Have fun and keep on sharing ideas!
