How to add a Flash animation to Microsoft:
1. Write down the location of the SWF file you want to use.
2. Choose View>Toolbars>Control Toolbox.
3. Click the Hammer button (More Controls).
4. Choose Shockwave Flash Object from the menu.
5. Drag a box across the screen to get the desired size and location.
6. Right click the box and choose Properties.
7. In the Properties window, click the top line, Custom. Then click the
ellipsis at the right.
8. In the Property Pages dialog box, type the location of the SWF file
that you wrote down earlier. Use the full path.
9. Set the other parameters, if you wish, for example, Quality: best;
Scale: show all; Window: window.
10. Click Embed movie if you want to make sure it's always included
with the PP presentation.
11. Click OK.
12. Close the Properties window using its close box.
13. Choose Slide Show view to see the movie. If your movie didn't
appear in Normal view, it will appear when you return to Normal view
after running the slide show.

globfx have a plugin for Powerpoint to enable you to include charts built using
their "Swiff charts" software, it works with any swf though.

Download it for free here:
