310779	2005-01-05 03:11:00	Now a hard one - The problem: Having created a powerpoint presentation and having using activex to embed flash content, I can't get the presentation to show the flash when just using the viewer on a PC that does NOT have office installed. Tried downloading and installing various versions of flash including the latest flash10 msi installer version. Tried downloading the latest powerpoint viewer -still called powerpointviewer98 but the latest exe is now XP compatiable (exe is a little bigger too). Tried pack and go, tried the new viewer etc. The powerpoint presentation all works EXCEPT the flas content which just shows the first image/frame of the flash content with no animation (static). Any ideas, I tried to get this one going for days ! Note:works fine if the PC has MS Office installed, powerpoint has been resaved as a PPS from Office 2000 and XP and tried. However my audience can't afford MS Office. SimonGT	simongt (6784)
