I am trying to insert equations and pictures, but I would like them to only
show up after certain lines of text. How do you set eq's and pictures so
that you can control when they come in using the custom animation in Office
2003?

Thanks

I have figured out the custom animation, but is there a way to copy and
paste an equation object from Word into PPT so that it shows up inline with
the text? If not, does anybody have a macro that will do this for me? I am
trying to take math questions from Word into PPT, and if I copy and paste,
it only brings over the text from Word, not the equations.

Thanks!

Jeff, the day MS builds that capability into PPT, that's the day
they'll make thousands of mathematicians and scientists happy.
And not just them, because there's a real need to be able to
place inline objects of all kinds into PPT -- not just equations
-- but it can't be done now.

I have a tutorial that offers suggestions on how best to get
around PPT's limitations WRT equations. See www.dessci.com/ppt.

Not what I wanted to hear, but thanks for saving me the time of trying to
figure out how to do it
