I need to do a Powerpoint presentation in London on Wednesday as part of some training.

I have managed to put together some pics and text without to many problems (surprised myself)

I would like to insert a video clip just to finish it off.

A colleague from an app (action move FX) on his IPhone made the clip, emailed it to me and I can open and play it on QuickTime Player.

I think it is NOT compatible with Powerpoint as I seem to be unable to add it.

I have Powerpoint 2007 does anyone know IF and HOW I would be able to convert/add it in (Hopefully not too technical).

Many thanks for ANY assistance in advance.

Thank you so much for this, I downloaded and saved to my laptop in avi format, i insert it into Powerpoint and a pop up box asks if I want to play video automatically or on the click of the arrow. But when it appears it seems to be only a PIC!!!

OK so I found the Preview movie button so I click on that the Pic then just goes black until the Original opening shot reappears. so I am thinking it IS playing but something is wrong with the download maybe?

Having said all that it plays in media player perfectly OK which it didnt before
