We're talking apples and oranges, here, John. Someone ELSE mentioned a PPS, which is PowerPoint. Then *I* mentioned the one on my site...which is a SWF (Flash) presentation w/sound. And as I said in the last post, when I mentioned that trick you read<g>...you need to use Internet Explorer to view...just as if you were on the web. And yes, that right click trick will work for ANY FILE on the web. Any PPS, and SWF and DOC and DOT an Acrobat file...anything. A left click activate any linked file, a right click provides the menu to download.

Will it work for any pps link on the web? I downloaded a copy,but when I tried to play it,it said Windows can't open this file,swf,I think. What will play it? OK Mrs. Chapman,just 2 today.
