MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / November 2006Extract embedded Flash SWF
Does anyone know if it is possible to extract and save an embedded .swf from a powerpoint slide? I have searched and found some 'C' code but it might as well be written in Navajo! Thanks in advance  SignatureUK John UK John, Here's a link to a code solution: http://www.hairy-spider.com/PermaLink,guid,ae35144c-2977-4c0f-8e86-3515ee7b1121.aspx SignatureLuc Sanders (MVP - PowerPoint) > Does anyone know if it is possible to extract and save an embedded .swf > from [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > Thanks in advance Luc Thanks for your reply (and for looking!) (you can feel it coming can't you!), but I found that code, it is 'C' or 'C++'. Being a simple lad, I wouldn't really know what to do with it!

I know how to use it (I think!) but I keep getting an error (unable to initialise) Signature_____________________________ John Wilson Microsoft Certified Office Specialist http://www.technologytrish.co.uk/ppttipshome.html > John, > See if this helps: [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > >> > > >> > Thanks in advance Hi John I tried the compliled version as soon as I found that Luc had posted it. I know I will be teaching granny to suck eggs, but what I did was: Open my PPT file select the flash object and drag into a windows explorer folder (c:\extractflash\sourceppt) to create a 'scrap' file (odd this doesn't show a suffix though it does seem to have one!) From a command prompt, used the following command string and it worked! c:\extractflash\code\extractaflash.exe C:\ExtractFlash\SourcePPT\scrap.shs C:\ExtractFlash\ExtractedFlash\outfile.swf Good luck with it SignatureUK John > Hi Luc > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > >> > > > >> > Thanks in advance John, Sorry for coming back to you so late, actually did not try the code yet. Saw a posting from Echo Swinford referring to the code, so I figured if Echo faith in it so can I. Meanwhile JohnBury posted that it worked for him. SignatureLuc Sanders (MVP - PowerPoint) > Hi Luc > [quoted text clipped - 31 lines] >> >> > >> >> > Thanks in advance Luc Many thanks, the compiled file worked (once I had discovered the file suffix for the scrap file!) Many thanks for finding and forwarding the link! Best regards John SignatureUK John > John, > See if this helps: [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > >> > > >> > Thanks in advance JohnBury, No sweat, I remembered a long thread in the newsgroup relating to the same problem, just looked it up and bingo.

No .swf file saved, and the html 'page' is just a black blank! SignatureUK John > You can Save as Web Page the presentation.
