How Can I Bundle Movies?

Question

Hello!
I am making a movie that has 5 different movies conntected
together through a click button.
Obviously that's so the movie as a whole won't be very large,
so smaller movies is best.
However, when I supply to the customer, how can I bundle it
so that they don't have to see the 5 different movies and then have
to be responsible for making them all stay together.
By the way, some of the movies have click boxes that open
documents (.pdf., Word, etc.) I also don't want them to see those
documents or have to worry about them.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Pam

Pam,
You do not need to be connected to the internet to use an
.html file. Coming back to my original post, and speaking of using
folders to structure your files, if this was my project this is how
I would do it:
Export your initial movie as a swf, and use the include the
.html option. This will generate two files for the movie, a .swf,
and an .html. You will similarly export all your movies using this
same format. You will place the files (.swf/.html) for the first
movie in the root project folder. Place all your other movies files
(.swf/.html) in the assets folder.
So your file structure would look like this:
Project folder <--- When you are done, zip this folder.
-Movie1.html
-Movie1.swf
-Assets folder
--Movie2.html
--Movie2.swf
--Movie3.html
--Movie3.swf
--Etc...
You do not need to include any of the original captivate
files in your final output. Just these .html/.swf files and the
folders.
Within your captivate movies, to link between them, if you
are linking from the main movie to one of the consecutive movies
(located in the assets folder) or vice versa, you will need to
select the 'Link to URL or file' option and then link to the .html
file for the destination movie.
Also, you may want to rename the original .html file to
something like start.html so that your project would now look like:
Pam's Course (Project folder) <--- When you are done, zip
this folder.
-Start_course.html
-Movie1.swf
-Assets folder
--Movie2.html
--Movie2.swf
--Movie3.html
--Movie3.swf
--Etc...
Hope this helps
