Animated Text: retain Tools, Options setting

[ChrisGreaves]

I posted this in Eileen's Lounge with no success.




Word2003.


I am implementing animated text.
I create a character style with Marching Black Ants.
I apply the style to a phrase.
Not until I choose Tools, Options, View and check ON Animated text do the black ants start marching.

It seems to me that this Tools Option is not being saved. After lunch I reopen Word and the document and while the text is still bold, the ants do not march.

I figure that there must be/have been a way to make MSWord stay in a mode once set.
Am I doing something wrong?


Thanks, Chris
