advancing to previous slide after showing movie

[Rich Gelber]

Hi Friends: I'm using Powerpoint 04 and I've inserted a movie that I
put on a hidden slide. (The idea is that it is optional for the
presenter to decide if they want to use the action button to advance to
the movie or not). After the movie plays I would love it to advance to
the previous slide...just where it orginally clicked from. Any ideas?

Thanks!

I don't have 2004, but I think you want to put the movie slide in a custom
show. Make the link to the custom show and choose the show and return
option.
