Tina,
 I admit some confusion regarding your references to Word . PPS and PPT
are Power Point extensions and require Power Point to be the association
 to open  them. If you do not have the Office Suite you can download the
Power Point Reader from the Microsoft web site.
I hope this resolves your problem,
Hal Seabolt

Subject: [PCSOFT] Opening PPT & PPS files

How do you open these files in an incoming email in OE.  I tried copying the
commands for word in the folder options (inserting this program information)
but this didn't work.  Its a pain to have to save them and then open, plus
you have to remember to delete if you don't want.

I get an error msg that this file doesn't have a program associated with
type of file.  But I do have one selected in the folder options.

TIA

Tina
