Video and text

[integ]

Hi
In PPT 2003 I insert a video clip (AVI) and text box to one slide.
I want to see the video and the text on top of it. I send the video to the
back
and the text box to the front. In the Custom Animation window I put the text
box
first. It looks nice on the slide, but when playng the slide show, the video
clip
takes over and jump to the front, covering thr text. Cannot change it!
Is there a way to keep it in the back?
Thanks

You can not do this natively in PPT, video always comes to the front when
played. However, with a bit of VBA it can be done. Have a look here:

Movies always play on top of PPT content. Here is a page that overviews how
movies work with PPT and why they are always on top:
