Hi, I need to package a slide show in .exe format. Does anyone have a suggestion for software to use? A quick search brings up ProShow Gold and Picturestoexe. Any recommendations? Is there anything else to consider?

That is pretty easily done using Portable Apps, though I think it's a Windows only thing.Orangutan said:.....
* see if there's a way to get OpenOffice/LibreOffice to run from a USB stick (i.e. without install)....

I find it strange, too. But it is a compulsory component of a competition I'm entering - "Final output must be as an executable file (.EXE) and burnt to CD/DVD."
The reason that I'm asking for some suggestions is that I downloaded a training video from one of the programs (also in .exe format and I assumed produced on their software). My antivirus software started flashing red lights about a trojan virus. Hmmm.
