I have a PP2000 presentation originally written by a colleague with
extensive text in the notes. I would like to export this text to use it
in an alternative application. How can I get it out of the notes?

Del,
As an alternative you can send your presentation to Word, use File Send to
Word. Choose one of the radio buttons which sends the notes under or besides
the slides. Once in Word delete the slide thumbnails. And you should be left
with the notes.

As well as Luc's method with a little vba code you can export directly to a
..txt file. Steve Rindsberg has done the hard work for you here! http://pptfaq.com/FAQ00481.htm

You used to be able to use word to retrieve the text from any file, as
one of the open dialog options in the drop down list and while it won't
actually retrieve from any file as it says on the in, it will retrieve
from almost any microsoft file. This might be the simplest way if you
only want to do it once. Methods already mentioned might be better if
you have a batch and would like to automate the process.

Thank you, that worked perfectly! I'll also keep the VBA solution in
mind for next time. Thanks again to you and John.
