Thank you for that link, but I did find it myself eariler. In reading the
documentation contianed, though, you'll notice that this is just for up to
PowerPoint 2002. This does not solve the problem for 2003.
Whenever I have someone click on a .ppt file, it opens in IE. I have tried
both the registry edit and the File Type solution but neither seem to apply
to the way that 2003 handles documents.

Completion of question---->Well thanks for the answer it is the best one
since i did not formulated the question proper.
The thing is that I need to know how to open the powerpoint file
automatically with Power point not internet explorer, when a link to a
powerpoint file is clicked?
See the link I posted, then. There's a link to an MS page that describes how to do
that. You have to make the change on the client PC though; it's a user preference
thing, not something you can impose from the server.
If I try to print from internet explorer i don't get all the functinality i
need with the print button. I know thereare alternaties like "Ctrl+p" but
students don't care about that so they waste paper, so I need to have some
enforcements.

Control how the browser opens PowerPoint files

Your best bet might be to include instrux to rightclick and choose Save Target
As in order to download the link.
You could also zip the PPT up and offer the zip for download. Of course then
you'd have to explain how to unzip it.
Never easy, is it?
