The animations would convert As far as the hyperlinks I'm not sure. I do believe you can control the going from slide to slide. But, not totally sure.

Final question then. If I do convert it, would it keep all the animation and
click on page to move to the next slide characteristcs?

I appreciate all your help and time and thank you very much.

By default the .pps extension is designed to open as in the slideshow mode if the viewer has either PowerPoint or the PowerPoint viewer installed on their system. It is all dependent on the recipient who have PowerPoint installed, and what they have set in their files properties in Windows Explorer. Doesn't matter with the viewer if it is ppt or pps, it will open in the slideshow mode.

When I clicked on the attached pps file, it opened in the slide show mode This is using the option to open from the options pop up in both instances. When I elected to save instead of open both versions opened in the slide show mode on my computer.

If you have the viewer installed it will of course open in the slideshow mode. If you save the file (pps) and open it with PowerPoint, it should by default open in the slide show mode.
