I have many PP presentations that were created in a Windows 2000
environment...When I transferred these slides to the Vista (home)
environment, I lost many of the animations and the respective timings were
off...Please tell me I do not have to redo all of these presentations...
Also as a follow-up...can we still use Sequential Save macros?...Please tell
me "yes"

Hi Aarogon

AFAIK changing platform won't have any effect if you stick with the same
version. Having said that, timings are never completely accurate in
PowerPoint - depends on your machine specs, what's running in the background
(e.g. antivirus), whether you have run through the presentation once
already....

If animations are actually missing I would check the following:

As for the sequential save macro, I would contact the macro maker. Again
afaik it should be ok using the same version of powerpoint. But I'm no
expert :-)

Hope that helps.
