Hopefully a simple question. I want to run movies by first clicking on a
slide to bring it up and then with a second click, run the movie. I did this
somehow once but can't figure out how to do it now.

Thanks for the help.

First make sure your movie file is in the same folder as
your presentation (avoids many other problems).

In your presentation insert the movie (INSERT >> MOVIE &
SOUNDS >> MOVIE FROM FILE). When prompted, select
AUTOMATICALLY for when movie should play. Size and
position movie on the slide.

Select the movie and open your animation pane. Add an
entrance animation (box out, fade in, plus, etc.) and set
it to be ON CLICK. Move the entrance animation above the
PLAY animation.

Done. The movie will now appear and then play when you
click.
