Help Please!! Activating Powerpoint from Flash

[gromit]

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to open up a powerpoint presentation from the click of a flash button? I'm having loads of trouble doing this and I'm beginning to think that it isn't possible (but I've already promised my client!) HELP!

I've even tried using a divert from a batch file (opened using FSCommand) but I can't even get that to work!

Please help if you can, I thought it would be quite straightforward but this is now driving me mental!

Cheers

Grom.
