Extract Flash animations from Powerpoint

One of our teachers came recently to us with a problem…..how do you extract flash files from a premade Powerpoint?
This ended being a major problem as I could find no easy gui application so have put together the following instructions using an exe file I found on the net:

Extract Flash Files from Powerpoint

Step 1

1. Download the extractaflash.exe file from here
2. Place this extracted file into C:\

Part 2

1. Open Powerpoint File
2. Make sure the Active X control is enabled
3. Go to the slide with the embedded Flash File
4. ‘Select’ it with your mouse and drag it to the desktop – this creates a Scrap file….which is really called Scrap.shs
5. Now move the Scrap file to C:\

Part 3

1. Go to Start–>Run and type cmd
2. On the Command line type cd\ [enter]
3. Now type exactly ….. C:\extractaflash.exe c:\Scrap.shs c:\output.swf
4. Your flash file is now called output.swf in c:\ that can be renamed to whatever you want to call it —remember the .swf extension!!
