Need alternative to black screen while loading PPS

[Guest]

Hello everyone,

I am creating a "memory book" (yearbook) that is now a 26MB file (and I'm
not done with the project). My objective is to distribute the PPT as a PPS
and have the PPS open automatically. I'm using the Autorun CD project
Creator (with the 2003 viewer) and it is working well. My problem is that
while the PPS file is loading, a black screen appears. Is there a way to
display another screen while the PPS file is loading?

Regards,

Claudia

You can create a one slide presentation that contains a background and a message
like, "The presentation is loading from your CD drive. This may take a few
seconds, depending on the resources available on your system and its speed."
Add a button that is labeled "Start Show" and link it to "End Show" (ends the
current slide and displays the "real" presentation). Tell ACDPC-Pro that you
have two presentations to include on the CD - - first the one slide message
pressie and second your "real" presentation.
