Autorun

When I package my presentation for a CD using that PPT feature, it does not
autoplay/autorun when it is inserted into a cd/dvd drive. Any insight?

Perhaps the autoplay is turned off on the CD drive you're testing on?

If you have a play.bat file (which you should have if the package for CD was
set up to autorun), open it in Notepad and see if it says something like
@pptview.exe /L "playlist.txt" -- and also make sure you have a playlist.txt
file.

http://www.echosvoice.com/autoruncd2.htm has more info on autorun CDs from
PPT so you can check the contents of your playlist, INF and BAT files.

Have you tried the CD on several computers? Users can disable auto-run for CDs
if they like.
