I am trying to add an animated clip art to a power point slide. It is not
animated when I copy it to the slide?

Are you in Slide Show Mode? Are you using PowerPoint 2000 or newer?

I have Power Point 2003. I was just creating slides and wanted to add an
animation clip to a slide. I pasted it in but it was a still picture. Do I
need to go into slide show mode for it to be animated? Thanks

Yes, in edit mode the animated graphic will be shown as a still picture; but
in show mode, the graphic will animate.

Oh, by the way, it is far better to save graphic to your hard drive (usually
as a GIF file) and then insert it into PowerPoint. You can run up the
presentation size and bring a host of problems on yourself by using cut and
paste to get objects into PowerPoint. It is an extra step, but well worth
the time it takes.
