Open application from Powerpoint

[brendanbruce]

I am trying to start internet explorer in full-screen/kiosk mode from a
link in powerpoint. If I put:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" -k
C:\SalesPresentation\intro.swf
into the run prompt from the start menu in windows, it launches the
file in full screen mode the way I want it to launch from Powerpoint.
Is there any way to do this from Powerpoint? If I put that into Insert
Hyperlink..., it says "Cannot open the specified file." I don't know
Powerpoint very well so it would be great if someone could help out.

Have you tried using the "Run Program option under "Action Settings" Should
work just fine.
