Thanks for that Drew - I'll give it a try on a machine or 2 here to test, and if it works I'll get HR to try convince IT to make the change :p

All client machines are on Office 2007. When clicking on a hyperlink in a browser (MOSS 2007 site) to a ppsx file it pops up with the normal 'open' or 'save' box. If you click 'open' it opens the file in edit mode (as if it was a pptx file) On my machine (office 2010) it opens it correctly in slideshow mode. I've changed the doc lib settings to 'open in web browser' and to 'open in client app' and neither makes a difference, so I'm stumped at the moment.
