How do I open .pps files? Powerpoint viewer only opens .ppt file

Don't know version. Downloaded the 97 version, changed the name and put it
in program files ( not office folder). Assigned .pps files to it and so far
it seems to be working. The version that came with my windows xp media center
2005 only worked on .ppt files. Thanks for your help.

Go to a .pps file in Windows Explorer. Right click the .pps file and choose
Open With from the menu. Select PowerPoint Viewer as the program to handle
this type file. Put a checkmark in the box before "always use this program
for this type file".
