Hi,

Caveat: I have no idea how this cool stuff works.

I have MS Powerpoint presentations I want to have someone show for me
in my absence. However, I'm not willing to share!

I can convert the PP into a .exe file, so my specific needs are:

1. Seperate user and administrator passwords
2. User password is only good for 1-2 file showings
3. File becomes unusable after a set amount of time.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

CR

Yes: forget that.

If you don't want to share, don't give away.

Hello CR,

I'm afraid that I don't completely understand your concern. First, you
want to show something to a lot of people, that's why you have that
presentation. On the other hand you don't want anyone being able to
re-read it??? If your real aim is is to prevent the redistribution
instead, I would consider using a digtal watermark technique. This way,
you prevent that someone is using your content pretending it is his own,
what seems to make more sense to me.

Kind regards,
Christian Huetter
