Auto Run Program for CD's using Powerpoint

[monet1369]

Hello Everyone,

One of our users is using PowerPoint to create presentations about our product and then is burning them onto cd's to send out to our customers. He wants to know if there is any possible way to make the presentations auto run when the cd is inserted in the drive. He says that he has heard that you can write an auto run program but is unsure how to do it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Amy

Hi

Apparently this procedure should do (never tried it myself though)

create a file called AUTORUN.INI

type the following line

AUTORUN="filename"

Make sure you copy this file in the ROOT directory of the CD

Hope this helps

May The Force Be With You
