Цитирую:
For now, you can essentially do the same thing that sample did for ArcView 3.x.
APR files did not have the direct option for storing relative paths, but ArcMap mxd files do. I believe that is what the 3.x sample mostly did -- update direct paths (c:\data\allofmyshapefiles) in the apr to relative paths (\data\allofmyshapefiles)
From the ArcMap File menu -> Map Properties -> Data source options button
Set it to 'Store Relative Path Names'
Read more about this by searching for 'Relative Paths' in the ArcGIS Desktop help.
Store the mxd file in same folder as the data or have the data in a subdirectory \data to where the mxd file is stored. The user can copy the data/map off of the cd and whereever they copy the data -- AS long as they retain the same directory and subdirectory structure with the mxd file -- the data sources for the layers will not be broken when they first open the map on their end
