MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / March 2008Linked files in Presentation packaged on CD do not open
Linked files in Presentation packaged on CD do not open when run on a different computer. Linked files are of following types. .pdf .xls .doc .tif .avi Can someone advise how to make the presentation standardised to "Always Run" on any computer? Hi, Are the programs that runs these files installed on the target machine? for example, if the target machine does not have Microsoft Excel, then the Excel file would not open.

I always have to link the file type with the program to run on the target machine. This does not help me when I have to email my presentation to someone else to view.
