If you add the SWF to PPT 2007 and save the file as 97-2003 format, the SWF
is definitely embedded.

I am using PowerPoint 2003 and 2007 edition on VISTA. In either case when
setting EmbedMovie to "True", save, close and re-open - the setting is
altered to "False"
- I tryed to save to 97 - 2003 and but get this message "You are
attempting

- I tryed to save as PP2003, using PP2003 then open in PP2007, then I get
a

In order to get the job don, I have dusted off my old labtop with PP2003
running on Windows XP Pro - and it has never caused problems like the

However that is not an accepteble in the long run.

Echo S said:In PPT 2007, even as PPTX or PPTM, it won't be embedded, though.
Or maybe it will with that particular control. I know in my tests here, once
I delete the SWF from my harddrive, PPT 2007 doesn't run it, no matter if I
save as PPTX or PPTM. If I save it as a 97-2003 format, it does.
You should move the SWF from the folder where you told PPT to look for it
and see if it really does still run in PPT 2007.

when you place the PPT on a USB-stick and run the PPT form a different
