I have a form that contains muliple links to powerpoint documents.

Here is the command I am using for one of the documents :

<cfoutput>#variable#</cfoutput>

<br>
<a href="../documentation/powerpointdocument.ppt">Power Point Document</a>        
    

The document does open in powerpoint and does contain all the slides, but it seems to be  bunched together in the center of the screen with alot of space to the left and right of each slide. What can I do to make it fit the entir screen ? When I open directly in powerpoint,it displays just fine. This problem only occurs when I attempt to open it with the link.

Try cfheader and cfcontent.

When I output reports to excel, I use :

<cfsetting enablecfoutputonly="Yes">
  <cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment;filename=Report.xls">
  <cfcontent type="application/vnd.msexcel">
   <cfoutput>...etc.....

So for powerpoint, I would just change the msexcel to mspowerpoint. But I already have the powerpoint slides, so where would it be called, still between the cfoutput tags ?
