How do I get PPS files to open in my e-mail.
Using Outlook Express for e-mail.
Running Win XP PRO, and Office 2003.

Thank for any help.

Roy,

If you received it in an email, you need the free PowerPoint viewer to open
it with.

Roy,

And that's guff if you already have Office 2003! You need to go File, save
attachments and then open it from its saved location. If you double click on
a pps file, it should run as a show automatically.

Roy,

And furthermore, if that don't help, you may have to fix the file
association.

If you have PowerPoint 2003 installed, have you installed the critical fix?
Open PowerPoint, click on Help > Check for Updates.
