From: Paul on 30 Apr 2010 12:51 I created several training presentations in PPT 2003. Each presentation is linked to a common index file created in PPT 2003 and saved as an HTML document. When I open the files in PPT 2007, the link opens the presentation in PPT, instead of as a full-screen slide show as it did in PPT 2003. How can I open the presentations from the index file link as a full-screen slide show? Thanks!

I'm having a little trouble understanding what's going on here. It sounds from the first paragraph as though you're using a browser to open HTML files created from PPT . But in the second paragraph, you say "When I open the files in PPT 2007 ..." So can you explain a bit further ... what exactly is going on? > > How can I open the presentations from the index file link as a full-screen > slide show? ============================== PPT Frequently Asked Questions http://www.pptfaq.com/ PPTools add-ins for PowerPoint http://www.pptools.com/
From: Paul on 7 May 2010 14:48 Steve, (This is about the fifth time I've tried to reply... with no luck the first four times! LOL!) I have an index to my training presentations I created in PPT 2003 and saved it as an html file. In it I have links to the individual presentations. When I open the index file in IE and click a link (on a computer running Office 2007), the presentation opens with the preview slides down the left side of the screen. When I do the same thing on a computer running Office 2003, the presentation opens in a full screen. The orginal setting for "Slide Show | Set Up Show..." is "Presented by speaker (full screen)".

The rationale escapes me entirely. But there's some more information about it here: Control how the browser opens PowerPoint files http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00189.htm If that doesn't solve the problem, then it may not be soluble, at least with 2007 in place. :-( > > The orginal setting for "Slide Show | Set Up Show..." is "Presented by > speaker (full screen)". > > Thanks! > > Paul > > "Steve Rindsberg" wrote: > > > In article <E909F346-A051-49D3-A8B2-DD06614FC61A(a)microsoft.com>, Paul wrote: > > > I created several training presentations in PPT 2003.
