I have a PPT (2003) file that can be opened by clicking a link on a web page
(IE6). When prompted to either Open or Save, I select Open and the slideshow
immediately starts, taking up the full screen. If I end the show, Powerpoint
closes and only my webpage remains open. This is NOT what I want. I need the
file to open in Powerpoint edit mode so I have access to all menus and
toolbars. I've already unchecked the "browse in same window" option in the
File Types settings but this had no effect. I know I can choose Save when
prompted and then open it after the save, but what a pain!
Does anybody know how I can solve this problem?
Thanks...

Control how the browser opens PowerPoint files
