Prehaps i should be more clear, the hyperlink you will create is a hyperlink
to the actual excel file wherever it resides on your local or network drive.

Think i might have answered this somewhere else but anyway if you instert the
following code into your worksheet

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlMinimized
UserForm1.Show
End Sub

(where userform1 is the name of your form).

You will then be able to create a hyperlink from the powerpoint slide and
should load the form on top of your slide..at least it worked for me anyway

hope this helps
