I am having a problem with linking to a PowerPoint pres in
Internet Explorer. When I open it up in Netscape, the
PowerPoint pres opens up fine as a file that can be
downloaded. This is what I want. In Internet Explorer
however, I click on the link and it opens as a slide show
only - I can't open it as a file that can be downloaded
and viewed in different formats. Is this an Internet
Explorer thing? Can it be modified somehow???
 
That is a Internet Explorer thing. If you right click the file, you will get he
option to download the file.
