Hi Nulls,

      I am looking for a solution for the following scenario

      Friend of mine have developed some presentations in pptx format which
      are in the same folder and are interlinked with each other.

      Now he want to sell it to his clients but the problem is if he will
give that
      folder to one client then it would be easily distributed by simply
copy pasting
      that folder in multiple machines.

      So he wants to generate license for the particular machine and the
machine
      with that license can only run them. To my knowledge Power point
doesn't
      have any licensing feature.

      So is there any feasible solution to this ?

      Solution I proposed is that we will have to embed those presentations
in a
      program and that program will need some kind of authentication key for
getting
      executed on the first run. But this kind of program will obviously
consume good
      time in development and will cost good bucks too :P

      Is there any quick jugaad for this problem ?

      Can VB script execution feature in power point help us to achieve this
?

Cheers,
Rockey
