How do you add controls to Captivate 5 movies in PowerPoint 2007?

I have successfully added a Captivate 5 .swf file to my PowerPoint presentation, but I don't want it to play automatically when I animate the presentation - I want it to play on click.  I looked in both the Developer Property box and in the VB code, and there doesn't seem to be an intuitive way to perform this.  Am I missing something?  Thanks.

Hi there

In Captivate, try opening the preferences by pressing Shift+F8 and navigating to the Project > Start and End and clearing the Auto Play option. Re-publish and re-insert into the PowerPoint and see if that helps.

It worked.  Thanks so much.  Odd that isn't included in the Help file, though.
