Link to presentation in IE6 openeing PP viewer

[Linton Joseph]

Have a webpage with a link on it going to a powerpoint
presentation, which when you select should open up a
presentation in ms powerpoint, but instead launches in PP
viewer, have checked file associations and this is setup
ok. and works fine from explorer.

IIRC, whether PPT opens in the browser or in PPT (or the Viewer) is
determined by a setting on the target machine, so you won't be able to
control this for your audience.

some machines work fine, others open in PPT Viewer, do you
know of a setting that would alter this

No, that preference is for the end-user to choose.
