No program is registered to open this file

[Guest]

Operating Sytem Vista.
I am using Office 2007 Powerpoint. Though files are saved to PowerPoint
2003-2007.
I have been using hyperlinks to run wmv files in powerpoint. The links work
OK from files on the hard drive.
However, once put onto a DVDRW or similar the message " No program is
registered to open this file" appears when I try to run a wmv file.
The DVD was produced using Creator Classic and runs OK on Windows XP using
Office 2007.
Can you advise me what needs to be done to allow full operation.

Sounds to me as if you have a broken file association on the Vista system.
