Flash insert play property keeps changing back to false

J

When we insert a flash .swf file into a slide (created in Adobe Captivate),
and change the play properties from false to true.... it will run the flash
movie one time during the slide show. Once the slide show is ended, and then
started again, the movie does not play, and we find the play properties have
changed to false. Again, we change the properties back to true, and it plays,
but once the slide show is done, it reverts back to false.

how do we get powerpoint to keep the play property settings to true?

Of course the sooner I can get an answer the better... the main presentation
is tomorrow...

thanks!

Great! Note that you must have Flashback installed on the presentation
computer, so if you're giving your presentation on another system, you'll
need to install it there, too.
