aj47 Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Just a quickie.... Anyone know how i can have a powerpoint file open every time I start up windows?
5614 Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 You should just be able to place the .ppt file, or a shortcut to it, in the Startup folder. For XP: Start > All Programs > Startup
aj47 Posted January 5, 2008 Author Posted January 5, 2008 Cheers thanks for the help. Hopefully this will force me to start revising.
Pangloss Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 That would cause it to open in PowerPoint, but not in presentation (slide show) mode. I believe there is a way to do that, however. Perhaps a command line toggle or something.
5614 Posted January 8, 2008 Posted January 8, 2008 If you open your slideshow in PowerPoint and chose Save As and then change the file type to PowerPoint Show (*.pps) then when you open that file it will immediately start the presentation (full screen) and will not open PowerPoint. Then place that .pps file in the Startup folder.
