PPT2002 -Loss of animation

[Guest]

I have read the informationon using the PPTviewer for other computers when
packaging presentations to send. I have attempted to "test" the PPT 2003
viewer's properties on another system I have here and find that I still lose
my animations. Is there anything that can be done to retain the animations
when burning to a CD for use on another computer? Would I be better served to
convert this PPT presentation to a an AVI to retain the animations? If so,
how would I go about that process? If not.. is there another method of
production that could be used for this presentation?

What in particular is not animating properly?

I'd try and get the powerpoint viewer 2003 to work for you first. It does work

If so, how would I go about that process?

Are you sure that you are using the right Viewer? You mention packaging and
PowerPoint 2002, which sounds like Pack and Go to me. Pack and Go uses the old
Viewer. You want the PowerPoint 2003 Viewer at

When you Pack and Go using PPT 2002 and opt to include the Viewer, PPT 2002
uses the *OLD 97 VIEWER,* which doesn't support the new animations.

You have some manual work in front of you to package with 2002 and include
the 2003 Viewer. See http://www.echosvoice.com/autoruncd2.htm for specifics.
