I've a Power Point file(PPT) which has a Flash movie(Swf) embeded .I want to
extarct this flash movie(Swf).As there is a way of embedding flash movie in
Power Point Slide so there must be some way to extract s swf from a power
point file.
How this can be done?

Dinesh,
Save the presentation as a web page, this should generate a folder with all
the items listed separately including your swf file.

Luc.
No luck dear as it saves SWF as Image .So there is no separate swf in
presentation folder as SWF is shown as image in Web page.

Have you tried it ever?

I'm using office 2003.

Dinesh,
You are absolutely right it does not work with Flash movies. I found a
thread in which a user proposes a solution, not an easy one, so here it
goes:

Thanks Luc.

I'll try it out .However not an easy solution for a common user of Power
Point using .net to compile a code and make executable.

Keep in mind that whoever created the Flash file and distributed it in PPT may have
*intended* to make it difficult to extract the Flash for other uses.
