my problem is i need this on a schedule so i downloaded scheduled task.
in scheduled task they ask me the command line i want to execute and that's where it doesn't work.
I checked the "allow executing file as program" box on the file but i get the error cannot execute binary file.
How do i run my .pps file from command line
thanks

if you need to open the pps from the command line, you can run the powerpoint viewer executable, then pass the name of the pps file as an argument.
or if you have the openoffice suite or even just the open office impress program, you can run
ooimpress file.pps
