Animation Schemes Not Functioning

[Guest]

I am unable to activate "Animation Schemes" - I can see them in light grey
"Slide Design - Animation Schemes" but I can not apply any. I have searched
Knowledge Base and deleted file QuikAnim.ppt (as per PPT2002: Animation
Schemes List Is Empty or Is Missing Items) and renistalled Office Pro 2003
successfully, but I still get the problem. Am I doing something daft? Any
guidance would be appreciated.

If you can create the timeline, then I'm confused. Click the normal view
slide, the workspace. The animation scheme list should become a deeper
bold/black. Select a slide object. Now select a scheme.

Do you have a slide selected in the slide thumbnail view?

Jonathan,
A long shot, but you are not trying to apply the schemes whilst in slide
sorter view are you. Or check in Tools - Options - Edit tab - if there is
not a check next to new animation effects, if so remove it.

Many thanks for your input. The problem was fixed as per Luc's suggestion -
in Tools, Options, edit tab the New Animation was deselected. Problem now
solved. That was very helpful and encouraging. Regards JKB

Jonathan K,
Glad it helped. The long shot worked.

Jonathon K,
By the way better ignore my first suggestion, slide sorter view, don't know
what I was thinking of there.
