is there a way to have a ppt sent by e-mail and when it opens have it run in
slideshow mode? When I send them now they open as a ppt with all of the
design tools visible. Any suggestions?

Save the PowerPoint as a PowerPoint Show (.pps or .ppsx), instead of a
PowerPoint Presentation (.ppt or .pptx). However, sometimes even when
you send a show, the user's system on the other end opens it differently.
