Hi all,
I'm looking for help with this specific issues:
When I apply the Animation Scheme "Unfold" to my
PowerPoint presentation (PP 2002), the custome animations
occur after the graphic is "unfolded" into its content
placeholder on the slide layout (Title, Text and 2
Content) causing the graphic to enter the slide
twice...Any ideas?

Hi, Anders.
After you've applied an animation scheme to a presentation, when you
look at the custom animation task pane, those animation scheme
animations should show up on the list in a list grey type. They look
kind of as if they're unavailable, but they're really not.
Right-click on the "unfold" option for your text (master: body) that's
in the task pane and opt to "copy effects to slide." (That actually
copies all of the animation scheme animations to the slide, so it
doesn't really matter if you select master:body or master:title,
really.) This moves the animation from the master of that slide to the
slide itself, but it leaves the scheme animations alone on all the other
slides.
Then, once the animation scheme animations are available in the custom
animation task pane, you can change them by selecting the appropriate
one in the task pane (not on the slide itself)--at which point the "add
effect" button on the task pane becomes a "change" button. Or you can
simply delete those particular animation scheme animations by
right-clicking on the animation in the task pane and using the "remove"
option. That's probably the best thing to do if you've already added
additional entrance effects so you don't have to redo them all.
