RE: inserting animation

Hi Amanda

Thank you for your question; and welcome to the forum.

Most web sites I have read about this topic are in general agreement that animating every single thing in your presenation is a bad idea; as is applying a variety of effects.

The best suggestion I have come across is this:
"Animations should be used for only two things: emphasis on a point and introducing bulleted information"

This and other tips on building an effective presentation can be found here:

I hope this is useful.
Amanda

PowerPoint tip:

Running PowerPoint Show Without Opening PowerPoint

If you double click on a PowerPoint show, PowerPoint opens and shows the first slide in development mode. To prevent this do the following:

Find your PowerPoint file.

Right click on the file's icon with your mouse.

Select 'Show' from the menu that is displayed. PowerPoint opens and runs your slide Show. When the show finishes, PowerPoint closes.

Your audience never sees the PowerPoint working window at all.

To make it easier place a shortcut to the file on your desktop for quick access.
