powerpoint presentation to start automatically from cd

[radar]

I am using PP2002. I want to have the pp presentation start automatically
when the viewer inserts the cd. I do not want the viewer to be able to change
any slides. How do I do this?

Require a password to open or change a presentation

In your case, you need to require a password for modifying a presentation. To do this, type a password in the
"Password to modify" box. Read the article for more information.

That should prevent *most* users from modifying your PowerPoint Presentation.
