I want to use the Text Effect function on the last slide in my slide show.  I want to use the one that mimics a movie credits; ie they scroll up when the slide is displayed.  I'm have a lot of trouble following the HELP screens' directions.  can anyone give me a simplw 1,2,3 step proces?

First select the image or color panel where you want to add the text so that it shows in the preview window.  Second make sure that the last image is long (you can always shorten it later) enough then simply drag the text effect (credit roll) to the preview window.  It probably will not show because the text will start later in the display.  Move the display forward until the text box (red) shows.  Now you can add the text.  You can also adjust the speed of the text scroll.

Let me know if you want more detailed instructions
