"on click" animations won't advance

I have a presentation with some non-animated slides and some animated slides.
Left clicking on the mouse will advance through the non-animated slides, but
has no effect on the animated slides. Using other methods (space bar, page
up/down, etc) will step through the animations and advance to the next slide,
but the mouse has absolutely no effect on the animated slides - either
stepping through the animations or advancing to the next slide.
Interestingly enough, when I remove the animations from any slide, that
particular slide will STILL not advance with a left-click to the next slide.
This is important to me because my presentation remote only has a left click
or a right click button, neither of which can be reprogrammed to a space-bar
or page key.

Check that on the animated slides you have "on mouse click" ticked in slide
show >slide transition> advance slides on. If neither "on mouse click" or
"auto after" is ticked the slides and animations will still advance on space
etc.

If this isn't the case you can send me a sample slide to checkout if you wish.

Thanks, that did the trick. I didn't have any slide transition effects so I
didn't know I needed to check that too. I only verified the animation
transitions. I knew it had to be something simple because I couldn't find
anything anywhere else on it! Thanks lots
