HI,

We need to be "creative" in a short PP presentation at a strategic planning meet.
I am looking for some kind of animation (like a book page turning, or Tinkerbell (or a mouse) taking the bottom of the page and turn it over)

can anyone help please?
Will use MS 2007 and needs it for tomorrow

GAH!!!!! Powerpoint? sorry Jee.. I would like to help, but I hate that program, and have no idea how to use it. Out of interest though, would you consider a Flash presentation in the future?

Actually my Wolf, i'm looking at Flash but not sure if place where the presentations will be will have all the software loaded. I need a growing plant, and a money counter - and am downloading the software just in case. I don't use PP too often

Tell me, how difficult is it to use flash for the full presentation?

It is easy to put animations into PP but not easy to create those you want. I would look at Animation factory - will get the website for you. We subscribe and have found many useful animations there. And you can use them in PP.

If you use get the full Flash product you don't need Flash installed. You simply export your project as something called "Windows Projector", which is an application file (.exe extension). You can run it on any windows machine then.
