    Unless the user disabled ActiveX, on computers with Office installed, IE will use a control to display the PPT file.

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    Right, just use
    Code:
    <a href="http://myserver.com/myPPT.ppt">Click to launch my PowerPoint Presentation</a>
    If the user's computer has Office, PowerPoint will launch within IE
    Things I've Said:
    "Life's funny like that...elephants can wear frilly lace panties, and Dubya still looks like a monkey in a big chair"
    "Take four goats and strap one to each foot of a llama. Presto, goat-powered llama!"
    "You want to get me to work more, get me a Coke. No? Then deal with inferior garbage, I'm not coding another line and your clients can go to......thanks, I'd love a Coke right about now!"
