custom animations

[Guest]

I am creating a slide show with 200 + identically sized images. Is there any
way to do custom animations to a master slide and then have it apply to all
even if they have different images? This would save many hours worth of work.

Try this Macro:

=====Begin Code=====
Sub MacroMakeOver()
Dim oSld As Slide
Dim oShp As Shape
For Each oSld In ActivePresentation.Slides
'Add a transition for each slide
With oSld.SlideShowTransition
.EntryEffect = ppEffectBoxOut
.Speed = ppTransitionSpeedMedium
End With
'Add an animation to each picture
For Each oShp In oSld.Shapes
With oSld.TimeLine.MainSequence. _
AddEffect(Shape:=oShp, _
EffectId:=msoAnimEffectEaseIn)
.Timing.Speed = 0.2
.Timing.TriggerType = _
msoAnimTriggerAfterPrevious
End With
Next oShp
Next oSld
End Sub
=====End Code=====

Of course you may want to change the animation or transition speeds or
types.

In addition to Bill's macro, you might be able to make use of the animation
schemes in PPT 2002/2003. There's a quick tutorial on animation schemes at
