slideshow automatically?

[JMoto]

Anyone know how I can package my slide (yes 1 slide with lots of sound and
animation) so that when I email it and they click on it - it opens as a
slideshow automatically? I don't want it to open in the normal editing mode
and that's all I've been able to get it to do. I've tried saving for web and
it runs slow and some people can't open it. I want people to get all the
animation without having to click on slideshow themselves - some will just
erase it otherwise! Thanks for any help.

Hi JMoto

Save it as a .pps or .ppsx (2007).

Might be worth reading this too because of the sound:
Sounds/Movies don't play, images disappear or links break when I move or
email a presentation

alrighty, I finally found my answer in the searches - save it as a .pps
instead of .ppt. I didn't even see that option before, let alone realize what
it meant!

Next question! When I open the .pps I have sound (.wav file). When the
recipient opens it there is no more sound. Do I have to attach it in a
special way or send it with the .pps file? Thanks, J

Aha! Glad to know my premonition skills aren't letting me down ;-)

See my previous reply...
