How can I stop people making copies of my Powerpoint files?

Hi. I need to make a limited number of CD copies of my powerpoint files... I
want to make sure that the people who have these CDs cannot just make copies
of the powerpoint files.

Is there any way to do this? I guess not, but I'm asking. This is really
important!

Nope - anything can either be copied or recreated.

While it is true that if it can be seen, it can be at least recreated if not
outright copied, the poster does have *some* options.
