Custom animation for flash inclusions?

[Todd]

I'm adding several flash (.swf) animations to a PPT2003 slide, which I want
to integrate with other graphics using custom animation.

I'd like to control when each .swf appears and plays, in coordination with
the other animated elements.

How do I do this?

Thanks!

Todd

Todd,
You cannot apply custom animation to activex controls. So the way to
synchronise your flash animations with the PowerPoint animations would
involve programming to trap the animation events and fire your swfs at the
desired time.

Todd, I'm guessing that Shyam's answer (which is definitely the way to do it)
is way over your head?

If so, I've seen it done with a series of duplicate slides, each slide has
only one flash animation which played as the slide opened and the transitions
were set to make it look like a continuous single slide. Make sense?

Did that answer the question / help?
