command 'make movie' for Windows XP /2000 Powerpoint

[jo]

in Macs version of Powerpoint X, I could make a (quicktime).mov movie
starting directly from .ppt with ethe 'Make Movie' command.

a)if I want to open it (with IMovie, Final Cut Express,...) he doesn't
recognise the format. Could I save in QuickTime Player Pro as a
self-contained movie and manipulate further?

b)if I want to open the .mov file on a PC, the video crashes after
several seconds. Is the update for Quicktime not compatible?

c)if I open the ppt file on a PC, under Windows XP, all the inks with
inserted movies (mpg's) are corrupted, and NO 'make movie command' is
to be found...
or is there?

Could anyone please suggest an answer to these questions?


thanks,
Jo
