When I open a PPT or PPS from a hyperlink in Excel, the slideshow shows the
Menu Bar and Web Toolbar. Is there a way to have it open in full screen view
i.e. no menus or toolbars?

Thanks

Coneddie,

As it sounds like your computer is using a 'browser' to open the powerpoint
file, then have a read of this....

Control how the browser opens PowerPoint files

Thanks for the help.
It looks like it would work but as the company doesn't allow us
"administrative privlidges" at that level the browser view will have to do.
Thanks again.
