Workaround for advanced animation in PowerPoint Show?

[nhaims]

I just discovered that much of the advanced animation in PPT 2003 does
not work in PowerPoint Viewer. So, since the only way a PowerPoint
Show works is by using PowerPoint Viewer, I can't seem to find a way
to make it so that my client only has to click a file and have the
slide show start immediately (with the included advance animations.)
The closest thing I've found is to tell the client to right click on
the file and select "show." This is okay, but is there anyway for me
to make the idiot-proof one click slideshow method work with advanced
animations?

Are you using the new PowerPoint 2003 viewer or the older 97/2000 viewer?

PowerPoint 2003 includes the new Package for CD feature that burns a copy of
the new PowerPoint 2003 Viewer (that supports all new animations) to an
autorun capable CD.

You can also download the new Viewer from microsoft.com:
