Question Help!! Sending PowerPoint with Audio

Ok, need some assistance. I do Multimedia work for a local hospital. On occassions we help staff do PowerPoints with audio and put them to CD. The process I do is a create a folder on my Desktop and place the PowerPoint and the audio files into that folder. I open up the PowerPoint and insert the audio for each slide from the folder I just created (which contains the PPT and the audio files). When I do this and burn it to a CD, 9 times out of 10 when it is played on another computer it plays fine.

I have a nurse who is needing to submit a PPT w/audio tomorrow (Friday) to a professor for one of her certifications. It needs to be posted on an online "Blackboard" as a file. My thought orignally was to do all of the steps above, and then compress it to a zip file so that everything stays intact and it can be posted as a file.

It's not working. I do everything I did above, and when I send the zip file to another computer, it tries to pull the audio from my original PC. How can I get the audio, which is in the same folder, to carry over and ignore my desktop information? Again, I don't link the file UNTIL I place them in the PowerPoint's corresponding folder.

Any advice will be helpful! I'm about to get off work and will try any advice upon my return tomorrow morning. I'll reply to any suggestions at that point. Thank you in advance!
