Is it possible to add animation effects to ActiveX controls?

For example, I've created some simple text boxes from the Control Toolbox,
so that users can enter text while teh presentation is running. I would like
to make these boxes appear in response to the users clicking on a button,
using the trigger option in Custom Animation.

Is this possible? Or so I have to learn some VB coding?! <panics!>

Thanks. Spence

You cant use animation with control text boxes.

Try this Add a command button (next to contro text box in the control
toolbar), right click and select view code
Between the Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

and

End sub
insert this

TextBox1.Visible = Not TextBox1.Visible
DoEvents
-- Run the presentation and try the button
-----------------------------------------
Did that answer the question / help?
