    I don't know if it makes any difference whether you did the password protect on 2003 ppt or on 2007 ppt.

    I have some of my 2007 ppts password protected. To remove the password, this is what I'd do....

    Office button > Save As > at the bottom of the window, click TOOLS > General Options > at Password to modify heading, erase the password > OK.
