Creating a single slide as a control panel for a CD. How do I create an
action button to allow viewer to browse the CD?

Try a run program action setting of:

explorer.exe d:\

(assuming d: is the drive letter)

A vba macro could work out what drive the presentation's on and get the drive
letter from that, but VBA won't work in all cases. The user may have disabled
it, or you might be running in the free viewer, where VBA doesn't work at all.
 
Thanks Steve. What about an action button to exit the viewer and end program
and return to desktop? can't use a macro in that instance.

There are no action butttons that control other programs (except as you've seen,
to launch them). Unless maybe the program had a command line to shut itself
down. That'd be a very unusual program.
