Correct. Many years ago (circa 1999) I created a CD using PowerPoint Viewer 95 to distribute to our veteran's group. I purposely set it up so that whoever used it didn't have to have PowerPoint on their PC to view the slide show. I still have the CD's, still have the original files, and it still runs just fine on Windows. Here is the contents of that autorun.inf file: [autorun] OPEN=PPVIEW32.EXE \present\present.lst ICON=PPVIEW32.EXE,0 Thanks for jogging my memory. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
