Hello! I am experiencing considerable difficuly with what was once an
easy porject for me. I have taken over 900 digital photos of our trip to
Scotland last year. I have extracted around 200 of them and placed them
into a powerpoint presentation. I wqant now to transfer this
presenatation to a CD-RW so that I can show it at our local library
travelogue program. I did all I needed to and when I went to show the
presenatation, the disk was completely empty Embarassment has not turned
to frujstration.
Can anyone advise please.
Thanks,
Papa T

What version of PowerPoint are you using. If you are using PowerPoint 2003,
you probably want to Package to a folder and then copy the folder to a CD,
using your regular CD writing software, rather than package directly to CD.
Have you written any CD before successfully. In Windows XP, you can insert a
blank CD and drag a file directly to the CD. However, you can't forget the
next step which is to click on the text that says Write files to CD.
