Access doesn't like powerpoint? When I set up a command button to launch a
powerpoint file, I get an "Invalid . . " error message, but the path and the
filemane are correct (I checked 3 times). Any suggestions?
 
Did you use the FollowHyperlink

Dim PPTLocationAndName as string
PPTLocationAndName = "c:\aaaa.ppt"
application.FollowHyperlink PPTLocationAndName
 
Need more info, Stu. Please post the code where you are attempting to launch
Powerpoint and the complete error message.
