Add Video
You can insert a video clip on a slide where you want it to play during a slide show. You can choose either to have the video start automatically when you move to the slide, have it start only when you click its icon during a slide show, or have it play automatically in an animation sequence.

  1. Display the slide you want to add music or sound to.

  2. On the Insert menu, point to Movies and Sounds.

  3. Do one of the following:
    To insert a video from the Clip Gallery, click Movie from Gallery, and then locate and insert the video you want.

  4. To insert a video from another location, click Movie from File, locate the folder that contains the video, and then double-click the video you want.

  5. A message is displayed. If you want the video to play automatically when you go to the slide, click Yes; if you want the video to play only when you click the movie during a slide show, click No.

  6. To preview the movie in normal view, double-click the movie.
