SUMMARY 
Lotus Notes Field Exchange version 1.1 (implemented in Notes 3.1.5 and later) is incompatible with PowerPoint 4.0c. 

MORE INFORMATION 
Lotus Notes Field Exchange (FX) is a product manufactured by Lotus Development Corporation that organizes files in a Lotus Notes database. Notes/FX uses fields (bookmarks or defined names) to organize and sort the documents in the database. 
Microsoft added Lotus Notes/FX support to Microsoft Excel 5.0c, Word 6.0c, PowerPoint 4.0c, and Office 4.2c. However, with the release of Notes 3.1.5 and later, Lotus changed its version of FX from version 1.0 to version 1.1. With this version change, the field updates from PowerPoint 4.0c back to FX were lost. 
The Lotus Notes/FX products included here are manufactured by Lotus Development Corporation, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.
