yes,I want to use VBA to call Save As to save as a .xml file? powerpoint 2007 or 2010 can do it,but powerpoint 2003 don't do
Or, do you just want to use VBA to call Save As to save as a .pptx file? I think 2003 can do this if the compatibility pack is installed.

The question is too general to give you a good answer other than "Write lots and lots and lots of code" ;-)
Do you understand that XML is more of a user-definable format than a specific format?
What exactly do you want the XML to contain? Some data from the PPT file or everything about it?
Do you want to convert PPT to PPTX format, perhaps?
Give us more specifics and we may be able to help.
