Can't Open PPT 2003 File Attachment From Outlook

I

IT Geeks

I need help to solve this problem. I have no problem with my own PC but with
the other user. When user attach powerpoint 2003 file in Outlook 2003 insert
as Hyperlink, see sample below:
<file://\\servername\public\Training\CX_4.ppt>
File will open only as Powerpoint show not directly into the Outline/Slide.
I really need help to solve this problem. Every computer are running Office
2003 Professional with SP2.

Thanks.

Have you tried attaching the PowerPoint presentation instead of linking it
in Outlook?

Yes, no problem if I attached the file directly, user can open in edit mode.
It's only when it send as hyperlink.

I would go and see your server technician and see if he has set some
associations for opening files on the intranet.
