Open your .ppt presentation for editing.
Select Tools/Options/Security.
Enter a password in the Password to Modify field.
Save your presentation as a .pps file.
The .pps file will run as a slideshow as normal without the need for a password but, if anyone attempts to
open as read-only.
Seems reasonable, at least on the surface:
When you run the PPS as a slideshow, you can't modify it so there's no reason for PPT to ask for a modify
password.
If you try to open it for editing, then it SHOULD ask for the modify password.
So, that's the surface report. What've I missed underneath? ;-)
