Animations disappear after you modify a PowerPoint 2002 or PowerPoint 2003 presentation in PowerPoint 2000 (278552)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003
- Microsoft PowerPoint 2002
This article was previously published under Q278552 SYMPTOMS When you edit a Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 or
Microsoft PowerPoint 2002 presentation in PowerPoint 2000, and then you reopen
the presentation in PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint 2002, some custom animations
may be missing. CAUSE This behavior can occur when you open a PowerPoint 2002
presentation in PowerPoint 2000, add an animation to the slide, and then save
the presentation using the same name as the PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint 2002
presentation. Certain custom animations in PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint 2002
do not exist in PowerPoint 2000; therefore, when you save the presentation in
PowerPoint 2000, the PowerPoint 2003 or PowerPoint 2002 animations are deleted
from the presentation. WORKAROUND To work around this issue, when you open a PowerPoint 2003
or PowerPoint 2002 presentation in PowerPoint 2000, and then make changes to
the presentation, save the presentation to a different file name.
