Apple Remote for Key note but not Powerpoint - Why?

Hi

I am a student who does a lot of presentations but unfortunately I have to use PowerPoint so that those in a group that don't have a mac can get the slides in a format they are used to. My problem is that the Apple remote only works for Keynote but doesn't work for PowerPoint does anyone know how to overcome this? Is it a case of changing command buttons etc?

I appreciate the help folks

I use my Bluetooth phone to control my presentations.
