PowerPoint 2007

I have a ppt file that links to Excel. It is a good amount of animation,
which works when the files are linked. When I break the links to take the
ppt show on the road; the animation is all lost after the links are broke.

Anyone have a fix, work-around or experience with this problem.

I go to the Office Button, Prepare, Edit Links, Highlight the Links and break
them. This is done, so the presentation can be used on another PC without it
trying to update the links, so the manual update would not change anything.
The links update fine.
