I have powerpoint 2000 and I'm trying to burn a CD of my presentation not of
the whole powerpoint. I just want to view the show on a CD. I have tried
burning from "My computer" but it burns the whole powerpoint, slides,
toolbars, etc.

Or save your file as a .pps file instead of a .ppt file. It won't autorun
when you insert the CD, but it's a quick and easy solution.

Ah Yes, I see

That's what a regular .ppt file would show - unless the user asked
powerpoint to 'view > slideshow'

Good point.

Presentation To Video Converter is able to convert & burn powerpoint as video
file (avi, wmv, etc..)
