I tried to package my powerpoint using the package for CD but i receive a
prompt for one of the videos being packed that the path for the file is too
long. Not sure if the file name is too long. Actually the powerpoint I'm
copying is from a friend who package it into a DVD and I copied out to my
harddisk. When I pack from my harddisk to a CD-R, i get this error.

And what is the full path? Did you try shortening it?

I would create a copy of the entire presentation in a folder under C called
something like A. Then try to burn from there.
