I need to insert "type-in-able" box

[Guest]

How can I insert a box into a Powerpoint presentation that a viewer can type
in? I don't need to have the information saved that they type in, I just need
them to be able to click in the box, and type.

I have Office for Mac.

I have windows so this may or may not work.

You need to insert a control textbox.

Find the toolbar for "control toolbar" (its in view > toolbars in windows.)

Then choose the icon for "control toolbox" (looks like "ab" in windows.

Draga rectangle onto the screen and play your show.

Control Toolbox isn't available in my version. When I open this file (which
was created on a pc) a message comes up that says "Does not support Active X
controls." Maybe the control toolbar is an Active X control.

Yes it is - sorry
