scroll text, like tele-prompter

[OrangePeel]

I want to scroll text up a page like a teleprompter in a TV studio.
Just text not art work.
Animation during a presentation.

If you click on Custom Animation under Slide Show, you can click on your text
and choose the Credit entrance effect, which makes it roll like credits.

Thanks Jen but that option isn't in PPT2000 there is one called Crawl which
just moves the block of text up from the bottom but I have no contol over the
speed, nor can I pause it whilst it is moving.

OrangePeel,

with powerpoint 2000, you are not going to be able to simulate a tele
prompter....it's just not cut out to do it with large amounts of text. It's
either toooo fast or too slow. Sorry

I have powerpoint 2003, can apply the "credits" scheme,
but the S for pause and + for resume have no effect,
though they are defined as such in the help............
any ideas?

You can also use "1" to pause and "Q" to continue.

Best regards,

Thanks Ute, it works.
Not sure why the S and + do not when that
is what MS ppt help says to use.............
