ritarun -> RE: (PowerPoint Slide Show) Click Here to Download??? (3/13/2002 20:49:17)

One thought is that you need to change the file type to a ppt.
File formats for saving presentations--
PowerPoint Show .pps A presentation that will always open as a slide show presentation
Presentation .ppt A typical Microsoft PowerPoint presentation
Another Thought--Did you make it "Pack and Go" to run on another computer? Don't know if this will work for you or not but I know if I want to run a powerpoint on another computer I have to Pack and Go. Just an idea. Here's my desk "cheat notes"
Package a presentation to run on another computer
Open the presentation you want to package.
If you want to copy your packaged presentation to a floppy disk, insert the disk.
On the File menu, click Pack and Go.
On the first wizard screen, click Next, and then select options on each subsequent screen before clicking Next.
If you want to include multiple presentations in the package, select the Other presentation(s) check box when prompted, click Browse, and then select several presentations.
If you plan to run the packaged presentation on a computer that does not have Microsoft PowerPoint installed, include the Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer in the package.
How?
On the fifth screen of the wizard, do one of the following:
If the Viewer for Microsoft Windows option is available, select it, and then continue through the wizard.
If the option isn't available, you need to install the viewer. On the same screen, click Download the Viewer to link to the Microsoft Office Web site and install the viewer. Follow the instructions to complete the download. When it's finished, close the browser window, and then, in the wizard, select the Viewer for Microsoft Windows option and continue through the wizard.
On the last screen, click Finish.
Notes:
To view your presentation, you must go to the location you copied the packaged file to and unpackage it.
If you package a Web presentation, it is unpackaged as a Microsoft PowerPoint (.ppt) file rather than a Web (.htm) file.
In the wizard, if you choose to embed TrueType fonts, keep in mind that the wizard cannot embed TrueType fonts that have built-in copyright restrictions. It's a good idea to preview your presentation before you show it to see if you have all the fonts you wanted.
The viewer is not available for packaging if your presentation is password-protected. You cannot run password-protected presentations in the viewer.
I'm pretty sure also that a powerpoint presentation downloads automatically if there is a hyperlink to it.
Just some suggestions.
