PowerPoint Text Animation

Solution:

An eye-catching animation on a PowerPoint slide is to have the text "type in" as though it were being typed on a typewriter. PowerPoint even provides the typewriter sound.
To check this out, open a blank slide and click the Text Box button in the Drawing toolbar (its icon looks like a printed sheet with a large A on its upper-left-hand corner). Add some text to the Text Box. Next, right-click the Text Box and choose Custom Animation.

When the Custom Animation dialog box opens, click the arrow at the right side of the Introduce Text list box and select By Letter. Now, click the top list box under "Entry animation and sound" and select Appear from the list. Expand the second list box and select Typewriter as your sound.

Click the Order & Timing tab and select the radio button labeled "Automatically" and then click OK. Now press F5 to run your slide show.
