If I go to the file manager and double click my .PPS file it opens as the
slide show only as it should. If I make a hyperlink in a cell to that
.pps
file it opens in powerpoint rather than the stand alone show.

Is there a way to make it open correctly in a hyperlink? or what macr
syntax
would I use to open it?
