When I receive Powerpoint presentations (.pps) through e-mail, I cannot
double-click and open them. I receive an error message that states "This
file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.
Create an association in the Set Associations Control Panel." I have Office
2007 installed and Windows Vista. Any suggestions?
