Puitlooks Express and PP Viewer 2007

[G.Strait]

When using PowerPoint 2007 Viewer to see an attachment directly from Outlook Express. It will not play without associating it with the program each time. If I save the attachment it will play instantly. I have checked my setting and the box used to associate the pps files with the viewer program has been checked. Any Ideas?

Cheers,
G

Hi G

Have a read of this:
Can't open attached presentations from within Outlook Express after applying
Windows XP SP2
http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00657.htm

It mentions the 2003 viewer, not the 2007 one, but as the 2007 viewer is
just 2003 viewer + compatibility pack I would imagine it is still relevant.
If you fix it could you get back to us so the PPTFAQ can be updated?

Thanks,

Lucy
