Tutorial: Rewinding Flash in Powerpoint 2000 and Powerpoint XP (Step 4 - Additional information)

If you have a number of embedded movies, on a number of slides, make sure to create separate rewind macros for each one. In the best case scenario, you'd create a separate declaration for each. At the very least, you'll need to change the "DIM swf as" and "swf =" to swf2, swf3, and so on. Plus, change Slide1 to reference the slide in which the movie is embedded (listed to the left in the code tree -- see below). So, that's Slide3, Slide5, whatever.

Same with ShockwaveFlash1. To see how many Flash objects are loaded, simply pull down the menu that reads (General). It will list all of the Flash objects in the presentation. Keep in mind this will rewind all of your movies at each slide change.
