From: Troy on 31 Mar 2010 01:32 This could be for a few reasons: 1. Nothing is currently animated, so nothing is displayed in animation pane 2. File/presentation is corrupt and has disabled the animation pane (which has happened on several occasions here). To check, open a new presentation and try to animate text or inserted shape. Solution is to 'round-trip' (save as HTML and then reopen in PowerPoint and save as presentation again) or import all slides into a new presentation. Follow up and let us know an update. -- Troy @ TLC MS PowerPoint MVP Check out www.ThePowerPointBlog.com "JFA" <JFA(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:21EC82CF-464B-46F5-9BC1-AA606DCFC3AF(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > I am currently using Powerpoint 2007 doing a presentation. > > But I cannot go for the Animations, it is grey off...
