Sending a slide show as a read only

[Guest]

I need to send a slide show to various people but I don't want them to be
able to edit the presentation in any way. I know if you save the presentation
as a pps instead of a ppt it will run as a slide show. However, can you not
rename as a ppt and then be able to edit. Is there a way to put some kind of
security on the presenation. I am using Powerpoint 2003.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best regards,

Dee
