I have a PowerPoint Presentation that I want people to
download from a web site and modify to their desire. When
I do this, PPT always opens in Slide show mode which won't
allow them to edit it. Is there language I can put on the
hyperlink that will open this in normal view mode as
opposed to slide show mode?

Thanks.....
