Auto Run CD S/W - 4/11/2005 22:22:13   
Hi out there,

I want to have a PowerPoint presentation on a CD that runs automatically when the customer starts it.
Does anyone know what it needs and how to do this?

Thank you

Callie

Funnily enough I just had to go look for exactly the same thing as I've been commissioned to do a web site on a CD.

Type autorun cd into google and you'll be spoiled for choice. Many of them are specifically for Powerpoint.

I found one earlier, just before my machine decided to reboot, that was free. If I find it again I'll post back.

Thanx jaybee!

I also found out the Pack & Go function of PPoint-also good.

Thanks again

Callie:)

Yes Pack & Go allows Powerpoint to run on a machine without PowrPoint installed but I didn't think it would autorun a CD.
