Thanks for the tip. I was looking at some Flex components - custom ones that are free, for presenting a Photo Slide Show. It might be doable to instead of displaying images, displaying text.
That option probably would be not very practical - too much work for a result that isn't as good as a PowerPoint presentation. It's simple enough to publish a PowerPoint presentation on the web but I just wanted to see if there were any flex components/containers that would be very professional looking and sophisticated.
