Hello All, I have this document that I would like to add to my presentation,
but as it is too long putting on the slide is no option. Now PDF would be
possible but than I have a seperate document. Is it not possible to create a
scrollable text box within the presentation (PPT2003) ? (the document does
not have to be edited by the user).

Thanx,
Guurt

Hi,

Probably. But I'd set an action setting on it for Open, On Click and click
on it in the slide show.

Insert the PDF as an object.
Right click on it.
Action Setting
Mouse Click tab.
Check object action.
Set to "Open".
Run in the slideshow and click it.

hi,

you better do this, i guess this is what you need:
See if this works for you:

Click View > Toolbars > Control Toolbox.
Select the 4th icon (Textbox).
Add it onto the slide.

Right click on the textbox, select Properties.
Set MultiLine to True, set Scrollbar to 2 - frmScrollBarsVertical.
Now, copy the text.
Go into slide show view, paste the text into the textbox

succes, max

Right click on the textbox, select Properties.
Set MultiLine to True, set Scrollbar to 2 - frmScrollBarsVertical.
Now, copy the text.
Go into slide show view, paste the text into the textbox.

Hello Guurt,

Depending on how much time/resources you have, you might want to
consider using a flash object.
