How can I read an Office dvd on my Macbook Air?

I have a DVD that was written in an Office format, maybe powerpoint not sure. Is it possible to be able to change it to a readable format for my Macbook Air running Yosemite 10.10.1?

Thanks

MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

Not unless you know what is on it, Powerpoint files can be read by Powerpoint on a Mac, no conversion required.

To read the DVD itself, use an external optical drive such as Apple's USB SuperDrive, or one inside another computer.

To read the files on the DVD, try using Microsoft Office or a product such as LibreOffice or Keynote.

THANKS NIEL! Keynote was the answer. Once opened when I inserted the disc in to the super drive, bingo. Perfect.
