Animation via vba

I have an object (an image as map overlay) that I wish to smoothly move from
one precise position to another precise position. At the same time I wish
to rotate it and alter its scale (zoom slightly). I have done this in the
past by combining standard animation effects - and it looks great. The
problem though is that it takes aeons to get the start and finish positions
of the necessary motion path absolutely right - this is necessary as the
start and finish positions overlay different background maps! I know all
the parameters numerically.

Is there anyway of defining the start and end position of a motion path by
numeric position? I have only found how to do it graphically in the
standard motion path effects. Can it be defined numerically by including
all the animation elements within a vba macro? If so some guidance would be
welcome.

cheers

I'm working on an AddIn that probably does exactly what you need. It's
still
at the beta stage but if you woiuld like to do some testing drop me an
email.
Mention "Tweeny" so I know what you need.
