HI everybody. My specific problem is that I wanted to start (and run) some QuickTime movies (*.mov) from within my PowerPoint presentation. Nothing happened. I checked that it was the very last version of QT (v6.5), that the pointer and address from my presentation was right, the actual movie files really were there and finally I checked that the movies really started and worked fine when tested "outside" Powerpoint. And, yes they did ! But no matter what I tried, they would not start from within my PowerPoint presentation. Whatsoever! I would be very happy (Oh yes indeed....) if anybody could tell me how to solve this problem. Or is it impossible to combine these two programs, one from MS and one from MACINTOSH ... Thanks for any answer !
 
PowerPoint for Windows will only play QT v. 1 & 2 files. See
