If I wrote a Powerpoint presentation using vba code with text boxes and such,
packaged it up on a cd, would anyone be able to run it on any computer?

Code will only run in full blown powerpoint application. It won't run in the
PowerPoint viewer.

As Shyam says, it'll only work in PowerPoint, not the free Viewer.
And it'll only work in PowerPoint if the user's security settings permit macros
to run. If their security is set to Medium, PowerPoint will give them a macro
warning when they open your file. If set to High or above, your code simply
won't run.

Thank you both of you. Do you know of a better presentation software I might
research to do what I originally requested. I appreciate your assistance.

Hmm. I don't know of anything myself, but I'm sure if someone else does they'll
speak up.
