Import and Automatically Play .mov file in PowerPoint

[Guest]

I want to import a .mov file into a PowerPoint 2003, then have the movie play
automatically play when I transition to the slide. This works fine in 2000,
but I'm having problems doing it in 2003.

If the MOV plays in PowerPoint 2000, then it should play on PowerPoint 2003
as well. You probably have a Cinepak encoded MOV - you'll find more info at:

Also, are PowerPoint 2000 and 2003 installed on the same system?

The best way to integrate movies in powerpoint is to upload it to youtube and then embed it into your presentation.
In this way, yournpresentation will not only be very light in size, but it can also be distributed via mail without loosing the connection to the source file.
An internet connection is the only requirement.

To embed a youtube movie in ppr, you insert a shockwave flash object and chamge the settings. You can find a simple and short tutotial ( even with a free download template where all the work has been done for you):
