PowerPoint question

[Steve T]

If I click on a PowerPoint file sent to me I get an error message that there
is no associated program to open it. But if I save it to my desktop and
double-click it, it opens with no problem. I've already associated the
program and file but this is the only way it will open the file. My other
two PC's do not have this quirk with .pps files. Is the setting somewhere in
OE? Thanks, Steve T.

Do you see Powerpoint, Office, OR OE in this group's title? NO.

Ask elsewhere

Why don't you change your ID to something that more describes you? Need
suggestions?

 

[Unknown]

Was his first, by chance, 'Grumpy'?

C'mon... this is his second (so far). Don't tempt the bozo, just
killfile his ass.

Nope, Grumpy is hiding under PD43

That's probably the ID Unknown had in mind.
