Blinking(flashing) text

[Julie]

Good day everybody,

I use Powerpoint 2000. I would like to know how do I make my text blinking(flashing)?
I had looked at Entry animation and sound and Introduce text but couldn't figure out how to do it.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

Regards,
Julie

In PowerPoint 2000, the blinking effect has to be 'faked'. You can create a
series of identical items (alternately shape and cover box), that appear one
after another.

True, so she could 'Special Paste' the selection from a MS Word document
into PowerPoint. This would depend on having both PowerPoint and Word
installed on both the design and presentation computers. Usually it's
pretty much a given, but not assured. It would be easier, but slightly more
risky.

You have to flip the paper over and back real fast to get MS Word's blinking
text effect.
