You can start Lotus Symphony from a command prompt, followed by the parameter -show and an Lotus Symphony Presentations filename. For example, to start the file filename.odp from the command prompt, enter the following command:
sLotus Symphony -show filename.odp
This assumes that sLotus Symphony is in the program path of your system, and that filename.odp is located in the current directory.
