Need help with MS Powerpoint for Mac 2008

[adamvk]

In the windows version of Powerpoint, you can make motion paths, as well as make objects move around. I can't figure out how to do this on Powerpoint for Mac, its very frustrating.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Did some checking and as of right now the motion path feature apparently does not exist in Office 2008. There was a suggestion I found to download NeoOffice and work with your presentation in there to add motion paths and then bring it back to PowerPoint 08 to do the presentation.

I hope they put this feature in soon, I like it.

Ok thanks...I did some googling and found that suggestion too....Stupid M$....I think that they're punishing us Mac users for ditching Windows.

No, there is certain code that for some reason won't work on a Mac, like visual basics allowing macro functions in Excel. Might be along those lines. We have to be nice to our Microsoft friends or they won't grant our wishes....
