Thanks much,

If you set the file associations of the various filetypes (.ppt, .pps, .pptx, .ppsx -- I think, not really sure about the slide show ones) to point to OOo, that should do it. Generally this can be done by right-clicking on a file of one of these types, selecting Open With, and browing to simpress.exe. If you select the option to always use this program for this filetype, you should only have to do this once for each type. Some e-mail programs manage their own associations, in which case you'd have to follow this procedure on an attachment.
