animation 2007 to 2003

[nuzjunkie]

I am upgrading from Office 2000 to 2007 at home; at work, now have 2003.
With previous Office PPT versions (going from PPT 2002 to 2000 and back on
different PCs) had issues with animations displayed in wrong order and
breaking words/sentences in the middle. Would this be an issue going back and
forth b/w 2003 and 2007 on work/home PCs?

Hi

Animations are the same in 2003 and 2007 so you shouldn't have any problem.
Except with SmartArt animations as saving as a 2003 file or opening in 2003
with compatability pack installed will convert the SmartArt to a picture so
will not animate as expected.

I would suggest you always work in compatability mode at home (07) when
working on work projects and have a play with the new funky stuff when
working on personal stuff. Oh, and there's a compatability checker under the
office button -> prepare.
