Hyperlink to .exe in PowerPoint slide

M

Monise

I have a client with 'n .pps file which hyperlinks to an .exe (Office 2000).
He gets a popup while the show is running:

"Opening bla-bla-bla.exe Some files can contain virusses....... OK Cancel"

Is there ANY way to disable this in 2000?

Kind regards

You might have him try setting the macro security level under tools,
Options, security
