Autoplay multiple movies

[Guest]

I need to have multiple movies to start playing as soon as a page comes up
(without clicking on each movie). I can get one to start automatically and
then when that one finishes, the next one starts, etc. And I can get them
all to play simultaneously if I click on each one individually. Can they all
play simultaneously automatically when the slide comes up without clicking on
each one?!?!?! Using PowerPoint 2000 and these are mpg movies (if that
matters). Thanks!!

Under Custom Animation > Multimedia Settings do you have "Pause slide show while
playing" set for the videos? What happens if you set them to "Continue slide
show"?

Oh, bless your heart, Sonia!! We tried so many things and we were in the
right vicinity...but never quite hit it. THANK YOU!!!!!! Works perfectly!!

I thought that might be the problem. Pause slide show means "don't do anything
else 'cause I just want to play this bloody video all by itself." <G>
