How to use Multimedia Files in Microsoft PowerPoint

One of the most stunning work of the Microsoft Office Application is playing a movie and SWF file in the Microsoft PowerPoint application. Talking with the movie presentation inside the application is made of very simple. Such as downloading first the movie you like in one of the best video sharing community, such as YouTube. Then insert the movie using the insert menu of the MS-PowerPoint. And this SWF (shock wave file) of the Adobe Macromedia Flash is used to create a better animation you own and created. Both the three new versions that highly made of user friendly environment, you can now insert both the Adobe Macromedia Flash and different movie file format such as WMP created using the windows movie maker.

In the following series of paragraph below, its a complete instruction listed in the proper order that came from the Microsoft Help. You can use this to create your own stunning movie and swf presentation using the Microsoft Office new versions, the Microsoft Office 2007, 2010, and 2013.

If you have an animated graphic that was created by using Adobe Macromedia Flash and saved as a Shockwave file with an .swf extension, you can play the file in a Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 presentation by using the ActiveX control called Shockwave Flash Object and the Adobe Macromedia Flash Player. To play the Flash file, add an ActiveX control to the slide and create a link from it to the Flash file, or embed the file in the presentation.

ActiveX control, security settings are located in the Trust Center, where you can find security and privacy settings for 2007 Microsoft Office system programs. You may need to adjust your security settings to allow Active X controls to run. ActiveX settings in the Trust Center apply to all 2007 Office release products. For example, if you change a setting in PowerPoint, that setting is also changed for other Office programs that use the Trust Center. For more information about Active X controls and changing settings, enable or disable ActiveX controls in Office documents

.

 

The Shockwave Flash Object must be registered on your computer for you to play the Flash file within a presentation. To see whether the Shockwave Flash Object is registered, on the Developer tab, in the Controls group, click More Controls. If the Shockwave Flash Object appears in the list of controls, it is registered on your computer. If it is not registered, download the latest version of the Flash Player from the Adobe Web site to register the Shockwave Flash Object on your computer.

 

To guarantee that complex animations run properly, install the latest version of the Flash Player, even if older versions of the Shockwave Flash Object are registered on your computer. 

Add a Flash file to a presentation:

1. Install the Flash Player on your computer.
   
2. In PowerPoint, in Normal view, display the slide on which you want to play the animation.
   
3. Click the Microsoft Office Button , and then click PowerPoint Options.
   
4. Click Popular, and then under Top options for working with PowerPoint, select the Show Developer tab in the Ribbon check box, and then click OK.
   
5. On the Developer tab, in the Controls group, click More Controls .
   
6. In the list of controls, click Shockwave Flash Object, click OK, and then drag on the slide to draw the control. Resize the control by dragging the sizing handles.
   
7. Right-click the Shockwave Flash Object, and then click Properties.
   
8. On the Alphabetic tab, click the Movie property.
   
9. In the value column (the blank cell next to Movie), type the full drive path, including the file name (for example, C\: MyFile.swf) or uniform resource locator (URL) to the Flash file that you want to play.
   
10. To set specific options for how the animation plays, do the following, and then close the Properties dialog box:
    • To play the file automatically when the slide is displayed, set the Playing property to True. If the Flash file has a Start/Rewind control built into it, you can set the Playing property to False.
      
    • If you don't want the animation to play repeatedly, set the Loop property to False.
      
    • To embed the Flash file so that you can share the presentation with others, set the Embed Movie property to True. (For the Flash file to run, however, the Shockwave Flash Object control must be registered on any computer that runs the presentation.)
    
    

Preview an animation in Slide Show view

• On the View tab, in the Presentation Views group, click Slide Show or press F5. To exit the slide show and return to Normal view, press ESC.

If you don’t have any program installed on your computer just download here the Adobe Macromedia Flash, just click this link: Macromedia Flash 8. That’s all again, see you in the next post. “End”

How to use Logical Function of Microsoft Excel Worksheets

Microsoft Office Excel widely uses in our community. It is a common use as a simulation of spreadsheets paper. This is a part of automation in our office works as widely use in the calculation. There are hundreds of formulas built-in in this program to meet our needs in our worksheets of data, from simple to more complex application of a formula such as the logical. This is common to the programming platform of computer from basics to advance such as the coding of the database.

Logical function is a form of different conditions itself to meet an exact decision of data without changing its reference data in a worksheet. It can decides even it is hundreds of range of data in a single worksheet using the autofill. It can decides even nested in different logical operators both addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication.

Now this post will help you learn what is the IF function of the Microsoft Excel using even it is Excel 97, 2003, or 2007 buildup and even using the other Office Application such as Open Office and Star Office. Or else using the cloud application of both the Google Drive spreadsheets and the Skydrive application of the Microsoft Outlook.com of the MSN.

According of the Microsoft Office, IF means; “returns one value if a condition you specify evaluates to TRUE and another value if it evaluates to FALSE. Use IF to conduct conditional tests on values and formulas.”

Syntax IF (logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false) Logical_test is any value or expression that can be evaluated to TRUE or FALSE. For example, A10=100 is a logical expression; if the value in cell A10 is equal to 100, the expression evaluates to TRUE. Otherwise, the expression evaluates to FALSE. This argument can use any comparison calculation operator. Value_if_true is the value that is returned if logical_test is TRUE. For example, if this argument is the text string "Within budget" and the logical_test argument evaluates to TRUE, then the IF function displays the text "Within budget". If logical_test is TRUE and value_if_true is blank, this argument returns 0 (zero). To display the word TRUE, use the logical value TRUE for this argument. Value_if_true can be another formula.

Value_if_false   is the value that is returned if logical_test is FALSE. For example, if this argument is the text string "Over budget" and the logical_test argument evaluates to FALSE, then the IF function displays the text "Over budget". If logical_test is FALSE and value_if_false is omitted, (that is, after value_if_true, there is no comma), then the logical value FALSE is returned. If logical_test is FALSE and value_if_false is blank (that is, after value_if_true, there is a comma followed by the closing parenthesis), then the value 0 (zero) is returned. Value_if_false can be another formula. The above STATEMENT can be understood in the following example, using the IF function: The final grades of the students set as example table below:

	A	B	C	D	E
1	Name of Students	Prelim	Midterm	Final Average	Remarks
2	Juan Juan	70	70	70	failed
3	Pedro C. Pedro	90	99	94.5	passed

 

The syntax above states that IF (logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false), now basing the worksheet table the remarks are only passed or failed. Combining the logical as stated I use the logical by writing it in the worksheet as follows; =if (d2>75,”passed”,”failed”) now it is understood that =if is a logical function, d2 is a logical reference or reference data, greater than 75 is a logical test, and both using the double quotation the passed and failed is the logical condition that will base of the data reference and will depend of the logical test you provided.

See the image shown above.

A lot of examples will follow such as using the multiple IF function of the Microsoft Excel, it will help you to decide a hundreds of data using the remarks of your worksheets in different categories such as using the is greater than or equal to the principle. Just follow always this post, “End”

Use Windows Memory Diagnose Tools to Test RAM Failure

One of the problems of our computer is “windows lagging”, this logging is not only the cause of a damage files of windows or cause by a virus.
