Default view e-mail attachments on powerpoint

When I received an e-mail attachment on powerpoint I was able to click on it
and viewed. Now, instead of being able to view it on powerpoint it goes to
Windows Media Player and tells me it cannot open it. How can I get to work
again?

I have power point 2000 and the help is for 2003. Do you think that this
would apply to 2000?

That was for the 2003 VIEWER. If you have the full powerpoint 2000 program

Right click any powerpoint show icon properties

Check the opens with box - if its NOT powerpoint change - make sure the
"always use" box is ticked
