flash in Powerpoint 2001 for Macintosh - ActiveX Control??

[marion]

Hello,

I am trying to control my flash buttons in Powerpoint, but when I try
to get to the control "hammer and wrench", I can't get there. I cannot
activate this control. Is this a bug or error in my Powerpoint?

Please, can someone help me activate it??

Kind regards,
Marion

Hi

Flash animations are handled by Apple's QuickTime in PowerPoint. Whatever
QuickTime supports is what you get in PowerPoint.

It sounds like QuickTime does not support the Flash feature you are trying
to use. You can check this by trying your swf file in QuickTime Player
without PowerPoint. I expect that you'll have the same result.

If that is indeed the case, the places to submit feedback are MacroMedia
(the makers of Flash) and Apple (the makers of QuickTime).
