I have a slideshow that runs on my harddisk perfectly and now want to burn the CDR without burning a bunch of "coasters". Can the PTE group share their experience with me regarding how the compiled exe's must be coded so that the slideshow will play on other machines with CDR players. My slide show consists of several exe's and jpegs that exist in different subdirectories (folders) in my harddisk ("D" drive). When I created the opening exe with buttons that open exe's in other subdirectories, I used PTE's browse function which designates the location of the exe's as (for example) D:\wem\pte\maps, D:\wem\pte\trip, D:\wem\pte\warmup, etc. So the opening exe which is located in the parent D:\wem\pte calls exe's in the child subdirectories. Question is, does the compiled exe have the drive letter designation (D:) coded in the exe?? If so, which I suspect, then when the slide show is played on another machine, the drive letter may be incorrect, or not even exist on that machine. So the show plays fine on mine, but may not work on others, depending upon their configuration. The heirarchical subdirectory structure and file placement on my harddisk is helpful in sorting the files, and creating the various exe's for the slideshow. I don't want to give it up. Do I need to delete reference to "D:" drive in the creation of the exe's to insure that the show will successfully play on other machines? Any tips or tricks that other users that have extensive number of exe's in a slideshow use to insure that the show will play on other machines. Thanks in advance for the wisdom of this forum. Cheers, Jim
