I cannot open a .pps file extension to an email in OE6. I followed the
instructions on the MS web page. I completely uninstalled the viewer,
loaded down a new copy of pps viewer 2003, and installed it. When I run
PPSFIX I get "Invalid root in reg key
HKCR\powerpointviewer.slideshow.11\shell\open\comm and". When I try to
manually add an OPEN command to the reg, it seems to go ok but then it
reverts back to only a PRINT and SHOW command. When I try to change the
SHOW to an OPEN, it just changes back. I DO have administrative authority
and I have tried to change it in Safe Mode but it allways changes back.
PPS files on my hard drive open just fine, but not in OE. Why did the
Powerpoint install NOT add an OPEN command?? Why can't MS fix this??? Any
ideas what
I can do to make it work?? Frank
