Select the powerpoint file in Windows Explorer. Right click and select 'open
with' Choose Powerpoint. Check the box - always open with this application.
OK out of the box.

The presentation should now open in Powerpoint when you click the icon.

Is there ANYONE that may have the answer to this problem.

I am using Microsoft Word 2002 SP3 and Powerpoint 2003 and created
a Word document with a .pps object embedded in it. When I
double-clicked on
the icon (first time) I saw the Slideshow OK.
I was playing around to tried and open it as slides and have
done something so that now all I can see is the first slide.

I right-clicked on the icon and, under option,
clicked on 'convert...' and then 'Microsoft Powerpoint Slide'. Now
when I double-click (or right click, Slide object..., open/edit) I
just see the first slide.

Also, if I take any other presentations and insert it them as
object in a Word document, the same thing happens (though if I open
something directly with Powerpoint it works fine).

Any ideas on how I can fix my system back to the way it was?

I've tried the 'convert...' option and, although the icon in the
Word doc *says* presentation
object, it still just gives me the first slide when I open it.
