I launch PowerPoint from a command prompt (.bat file) as follows:

c:
cd \
cd Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10
powerpnt.exe

I want to control the size and position of the window from the bat file.

The reason is to help the user. the .bat file opens several applications.
A browser, and editor and a spreadsheet. I don't want them to overlap on the
monitor. I want the browser and the editor to be sid-by-side on the top and
the spreadsheet to be below them.

Of course the users can set this up themselves, but they would rather it
hapen automatically.

unfortunetely i dont think that this is posible...there is no way for such
thing
the only way is to open each program manualy and resize the window of each
program and place them where you want...then close ....and open again and
see if it's open in the same place and size...
then when you execute the bat file the programs will open in the memorized
position..

bye bye
