I have a good deal of experience creating PowerPoint presentations that link to various external video, audio and .exe files. Upon completing presentations, I generally package all of the necessary files on CDs- sometimes with an installer other times simply with written instructions for the end-user telling them where the files need to be located in order for the links to work properly.
I have a client that would like to distribute their PowerPoint presentations (containing links) on USB flash memory sticks as opposed to CDs. I'm wondering if I can program the presentation and corresponding links to live on and function entirely from the memory stick- independent of the end user's C Drive. Thus being a self-contained presentation (with links) that would not need to take up space on the end-user's machine.
If this is possible, then my second question would be:
In programming the presentation and creating links to various media files, what variables do I need to consider with regards to the memory stick's location/identity. For instance, is a USB memory stick universally referred to as an "E Drive" or do I have the ability to name the drive and have that name be recognized by all target systems reading the drive?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
THANKS.
