[Ian McCulloch]

Hi

Using PP2000 SP3

Is there any way to open the file directly in full screen mode?

Save your presentation as a presentation file (.pps). If your file allocations
are correct, when you open the file, it will open in slideshow mode full screen.

Either change the file extension in Windows Explorer from "ppt" to "pps" or
click "File", "Save as", and change the "Save as type" dropdown to
"PowerPoint Show" (which gives it a "pps" extension).

Many thanks

How about when i run the pps file in the scheduler, it opens in PPT mode.
It does not slide show. How can i force the .pps file to run as a slide
show, when being executed by the scheduler. Is there a file switch i can
use.?

Thanks
Troy

Thanks for that. I was on the right line, but it appears that the program
is very fussy. Your assistance was most greatly appreciated.
