Integrate Flash With PowerPoint

Wednesday December 24, 2008
My very talented friend, Sandi, loves to work with Flash. Now I have to say, that I too, have used Flash now and again, but it is usually under duress. Flash is a really fun program -- at least the results are fun -- but it can be frustrating to say the least. You can't miss a trick when you are creating your Flash movie, or the program just does not like you.

Now, all that being said, the stuff you can create in Flash is just amazing. And, as a bonus, the finished product creates a very small file size, so it is great to play a Flash movie in your PowerPoint presentations. (You thought I would never get to the point of all this, didn't you?)

So, I recruited my friend Sandi to show me how to do this. I couldn't believe it was so simple to play a Flash movie in PowerPoint -- once your Flash movie is already created that is.
