PowerPoint Presentation
• You can only insert .swf files
• You should create a folder on your desktop
that contains your PowerPoint document and
the .swf file. i.e., C:\Documents and
Settings\computer name\Desktop\file
name.swf
• Remember the path – you will need it later
• On the “Developer” tab, go to “Controls” group
• Click the icon of hammer and nail for “More
Controls”
• On the “More Controls” window scroll down and select
“Shockwave Flash Object” in the list
• Click “OK” at the bottom
• You will get a “+” on your screen. Position it on the
slide, hold down the left mouse and make a shape which
your flash will be positioned in (can be resized later)
• Right click the control (box) you draw
• Click “Properties” in the right-click menu
• Go to the “Properties” window
• On the alphabetic tab, click the
“Movie” property
• Type the full drive path in the
value column (the blank cell next
to Movie), i.e., C\:a.swf)
• To make the Flash play
automatically when the slide is
displayed, set the “Playing”
property to “True“
• To embed the Flash into
PowerPoint, set “Embed Movie”
property to “True” (it doesn’t truly
embed - more on that later)
• Finally close the “Properties” window and
save your presentation
