How do I open two PowerPoint presentations in seperate windows

Asked by ccatarella in Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation Software, Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Applications

Tags: powerpoint, open, two, windows

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003
______________________

Trying to have PowerPoint open 2 windows, side by side. 2 Seperate presentations in edit mode much like having 2 Excel spreadsheets open side by side with the FileType Open Tweak.

I have tried the same basic tweak from excel on powerpoint with no success.

Steps Taken
1. Control Panel
2. Folder Options
3. File Types
4. Select .PPT
5. Go to advanced options under "Open"
6. Unselect "Use DDE" ensure line = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\POWERPNT.EXE" "%1"
7. Uncheck Browse in same window.
8. Ok ok apply etc...

It seems that Office or Windows is automatically throwing use DDE back on ... I'm wondering if anyone knows of a work around or a command line switch to open 2 ppt files in seperate windows.

I looked around and could not find anything. Any help is appreciated.Start Free Trial
