I have a special interest on powerpoint. I use ppt for presentations in
medical congresses.But I have a problem with showing a text box in front of
a playing mpeg scene.When you start the slide show,your text box
disappears behind the started movie box.How can I prevent this. So the
problem is ; you have a text box and you have a mpeg formatted movie.And you
have to show your text box in front of the playing movie box.I'll be
grateful to everybody.Thanks a lot

Easy answer but its not the one you want

You cant!

One way to work around is to put the text IN the video
See: "I wan't to put text in front of my video"

I've been able to do this in a limited manner. If you like, drop me an
email and I'll see if I can lend a hand.
