Automating e-mailed PowerPoint presentations?

[Bad Bart]

Hello all,

A how-to question regarding PowerPoint presentations that once opened as
e-mail attachments immediately start and run without any prompting from the
person viewing them: How is that done? Is there a setting than needs to be
activated in PowerPoint, or is this done by using some other program, or is
some sort of PowerPoint add-in required? I would like to know how a show,
upon being opened, starts running without the viewer having to manually turn
on Slide Show View.

I am well aware of the dangers of e-mail attachments and am not looking for
an answer to my question for any nefarious purposes. I would just like to
know the process.

Many thanks for any help, advice or guidance!

Bart

Save the file as a presentation file .pps. once received, and if the
recipient has either PowerPoint or the PowerPoint viewer they will be open
the presentation by clicking on it.
