Hi
I have MacOSX and office for mac. i have been trying to reproduce some
animations I made in Powerpoint 2002 in a PC. This new version of powerpoint
is very nice. Unfortunately, my animations don't work in MacosX with office,
the version for powerpoint is not so sophisticated. How can I introduce
those animations from Powerpoint 2002 into my powerpoint version in the mac?
Is there going to be a new version of office for MacOSX soon?

Thanks, Tamara

Simply put, you cannot. However, there are some things you can do about it:

I think support for these animations would be a good suggestion for the next
version of PowerPoint. Please submit that to Microsoft, as I already have.

I don't know about "soon", but Microsoft have made it clear that a new
version of Office for Mac is in the works.
