Can you open/run a powerpoint presentation from within Access

A

Abbey Normal

Can anyone tell me if this is possible or a good way to go about doing this?
I have an access database that users will only use about twice a year. I
want to create the instructions for using it in powerpoint (or some other
tool if that is better) so I can include sound,etc. I want to put a command
button or link on the Access Form so the presentation will run or at least
start when they click it.
So if its possible, can you tell me what command I should use or start
looking at?
Thanks
