I'm following your instructions exactly, trying to get your 3D Column example from the gallery to work in PowerPoint.



I have set playing to True, added the ?DataURL= to the Movie parameter.



I get the retrieving data error, and sometimes the no data error.



It did work once, but is no longer working.



I'm frustrated. I'm using PowerPoint 2003.



Any suggestions?

Hi,

Could you please try using these steps?

1. Add Shockwave Flash Control to your PowerPoint Slide.

2. Set the movie property like below:
  a. Movie=file:///d:chartscolumn3d.swf?dataXML=<chart><set value='10' /><set value='5' /></chart>
-OR-
  b. Movie=file:///d:chartscolumn3d.swf?dataURL=D:data.xml

3. Set FrameNum=0

4. Set Playing property to true (Playing=True).

And then run your slide.
Doing Step 3 and 4 is necessary every time when you are running a new slide show.
