PPPCD for Windows

Used PPPCD for Windows?

Suppose you needed to give a PowerPoint presentation but couldn't take your notebook with you. What would you do? You could use PPPCD, a free utility that transforms PowerPoint presentations into autorun files you can burn to disc and run on any Windows system. The program doesn't come with a configuration interface, so you'll need to carefully read the help file. Luckily, getting PPPCD to work is no harder than copying your PowerPoint files to a particular folder and renaming the main file. Since you can embed links to other documents in a PowerPoint presentation, you can create slide shows involving multiple files. From there, you'll need a third-party utility to burn the target folder to a disc. PPPCD is a niche product for sure, but a useful one for road warriors who need to travel light.

I can't wait to share this program with friends and colleagues. After installation: Open your PowerPoint program, then open your presentation and do a File, Save As using the .pps extension (so no one can alter your presentation), then follow the step-by-step instructions -- Voila! You have a great slide show ready to burn to CD to share with friends and relatives. It even runs on a CD-RW disk: simply go to Start, Run, Browse, your CD-Rom drive, double-click Run.exe, click OK and there it goes (with only a slight pause: system reading the CD drive). For a free program, this is an awesome find!

Summary
If the program detects a user needs PowerPoint Viewer - there is a never ending loop! Once the viewer is downloaded, it never starts the Slideshow. Quite sad.
PPPCD is worthless!
