     The gentleman's original complaint was that his gifs (not anigifs) had been turned into anigifs. The answer you gave would be okay IF he only had one type of graphic involved.

     Stella, once you've converted the anigif to avi, insert it into PPT (using Insert/Movie/From File), then right-click it and select Custom Animation.
