Hi,

I am currently using Powerpoint 2007 doing a presentation.

But I cannot go for the Animations, it is grey off... Not sure what happens,
can anyone help me?

Thanks.
 
This could be for a few reasons:
1. Nothing is currently animated, so nothing is displayed in animation pane
2. File/presentation is corrupt and has disabled the animation pane (which
has happened on several occasions here). To check, open a new presentation
and try to animate text or inserted shape. Solution is to 'round-trip' (save
as HTML and then reopen in PowerPoint and save as presentation again) or
import all slides into a new presentation.

Follow up and let us know an update.
