Problems Inserting Flash Movies in PowerPoint

From Wendy Russell, former About.com Guide

No (Custom) Setting in Flash Object Properties

Several readers have written to say that they were having trouble with the Properties dialog box when trying to insert their Flash movie. The (Custom) setting is missing.

Refer to ~

• Insert Flash in PowerPoint 2007
• Insert Flash in PowerPoint (versions 2003 and earlier)

The (Custom) setting is really a helper of sorts, making it easier to add the proper information. Why this setting suddenly disappears is anyone's guess. However, all is not lost. You must simply add the information to the dialog box manually.
