starting a presentation automatically whne thumb drive inserted

[Tim]

I want a .pps to start automatically after I have saved it on a thumb drive.
What programs need to be emmbedded to make this happen?

Thr purpose is so I can mail out a presentation to a prospect and without
more than one click, have them start the show.

Yeah, you can, *if* it's enabled for that drive. Lots of folks are
disabling autorun now, because of the HUMONGOUS security threat it
presents.
