Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windows>vista>mail (more info?)

When i receive a PPS file in Windows Mail, and click on it, it does not open,
this is despite the fact that i have PPS Viewer 2007 loaded and have set the
default in the default Associations panel to XML Converter (If i set it to
Power POint Viewer then it says no program associated with it)

If i try to open the pps file then it asks me to save it first then i can
view it...
Also, i saw previous posts about registry entries not set to open but mine
appear to be set to open..

please help
thx
