IIS - Link to Power Point
Asked By Phil
08-Nov-09 09:45 PM
Hi,
I placed a hyperlink to a powerpoint file on my web page. Upon clicking on
the link the "Run/Save" window comes up. Is it possible to just have the
Power Point file run without the "Run/Save" window coming up? If so, how?
Thanks,

Posting a question 4 times is not going to get you an answer any quicker.
Try to be a bit more patient.

If you are linking to a *.ppt file then you need the Powerpoint application,
or the Powerpoint file viewer. Your visitors will need this too.

In addition to what Andrew said; your server may need to add the MIME type
for .ppt files contact your host to check.

Hi Craig,
FYI, each time I tried to make my posting I received an error from
Microsoft stating that there was a problem and that I should try again later.
I went to try for the 5th time and saw that the other 4 posting were there.
They were not there before I tried for the 5th time.
Thanks for your worthless input.........................

Hi Craig,
FYI, I tried to post this listing 4 times and each time I got a Microsoft
error telling me there was a problem and to try again later. When I was
going to try the 5th time I saw that the other four times were now listed.
They did not appear until I was going to do the 5th try.

That's because you are using the clunky web interface which maybe sometimes
works. You should use a newsreader.

Phil -
Okay, here is some more useful input. Use a newsgroup reader to access
this forum at microsoft.public.frontpage.client. and you will not have that
kind of problem.

Frontpage is Dead - Conversion to Expression (Web) Almost Impossible IIS Microsoft in its wisdom abandoned Frontpage in 2007 along with all of its users. The replacement Expression (Web) is fraught with bugs, and has yet to become stable. It has not yet been STEEP learning curve (actually many) for those who want to convert exisitng Frontpage webs to Expression. Many elect not to do so. MS has shot itslef in the foot by abandoning for the product. These are: 1 / small business owners who have easily built their own web site in Frontpage, 2 / web designers for those small business owners, and 3 / those who have created large hobby websites. For them to convert to Expression will not be easy - using FP Extensions are out, as are many other FP features
