opening PowerPoint presentation without bringing to front?

Anyone know if it's possible to open a PowerPoint deck without bringing
it to the front?  I'm using

   tell application "Microsoft PowerPoint"
        open "myfile.ppt"
   end tell

There don't seem to be any options documented for "open", in contrast to
most of the other commands.

I'm using PP 12.1.5 on OS X 10.5.6.

TIA,

Bill
