Hi Suzanne,

you will have to use a third-party-tool to record the presentation as a
film. Steve has an overview in his FAQ: http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00156.htm
and Techsmith offers it's program Camtasia:

Usually, you can use a conversion tool to take your presentation to a
DVD. Techsmith 's Camtasia is good at capturing your presentation as a
video movie. And you need a burning program and a burner to burn the
video file to a DVD.


If you want to have more control of your presentation on TV, you may
have a glance at another program PPT2DVD.

It converts a PowerPoint presentation to a MPEG( the format for a DVD)
file.

The good thing with this program is that you can create index menu and
content menu for the whole presentation on TV. You can also have a
integrated video movie out several PowerPoint presentations. As for the
buring program, it has a built-in one and you do not have to pay extral
money for it.
