Basically, you must create an .inf file named Autorun.inf in the root of your CD. Then place the file in a folder on the cd and edit the Autorun.inf like this:
[Autorun]
Open=MyFolder\myExe.exe
I'm not quite sure if the autorun will run for a none exe file (in this case .pps file)
But here is a workaround, as for the above statement:
Open=MyFolder\myExe.exe
create an exe at MyFolder name it as myExe.exe
That by generating the myExe.exe file, we open the pps by using Shell function, example using VB:
Create a form, in the Form_Load Event:
Shell [my pps file's path]
Hope this make help
