Subject: Re: Launch .bat file from HTML page

well at the moment it just brings up a file download dialog box, the
batch file starts the powerpoint viewer, and a powerpoint slideshow. I
need to use the viewer for quality. I am open to sugestions as to any
other way to do this the scripts i have tryed either do nothing, or give
security warnings.
