Powerpoint 2003 - absolute path of inserted movie from file problem

[subgoat]

Hi, I've made a presentation that includes 2 WMV movie clips inserted from files, which has linked rather than embedded them, just like the Help says it will. Trouble is, when I put this presentation and all the required files on a CD-rom, copy to another computer and run it from there, it is clearly using an absolute path rather than a relative path to the movie clips, and of course can't find them to play them. Is there any way of making the insertion use a relative path? Is there another way of doing this? I'd really appreciate any early advice here as I need to get this out today!!

With regards, Ian

Did you use "Package for CD..." ? Or did you just copy the normal files to a CD?

Package for CD - where is that? In the File menu... I'll try it now.
