Hi and thanks for replying!

What I meant was, saving the powerpoint slideshow as a ppsx file, but making it open in a window of its own when clicked (as opposed to full screen).

Is there any way I can disable the slide controls also (I'm making an interactive programming tutorial for kids).

Thanks again

Darn I did not spend enough time with 2010 office to tell for sure how to do this. I know it is possible to disable the controls and in 2003 you would set up the show before you saved it and it was all in slide show set up probably on the slide show ribbon to do both of these on 2010
