I'm using powerpoint 2000 and I have a button which opens
an external .exe file. According to Microsoft Knowledge
Base Article - 291912, I will always get a message "Do you
want to open..." regardless to security settings.

I changed the security setting to "Low" an it seemed to
take care of the problem for the buttons on that slide.
Other buttons still give the same message.

What's going on? Please help. Any solutions?

Thanks
Steve

Are you sure you didn't change this one button to a Run Program action
instead of open file?

You are right. I changed it to Run Program. Is that a fix
for my problem?
