Animate a freeform

Short of drawing lines over your technical drawing and animating them, I
don't know of any other way. This is what I do in my training settings. I
usually set the defaults for the line so subsequent ones come up the same.
Also set the animation of the lines to be "After previous", then duplicate
(CTRL+D) as much as possible to minimize the time to trace the drawing.

If you want, send it to me at:

and I'll take a look at it.

I am using Powerpoint 2000 with Service Pack 3. I have drawn a long freeform
object and wish to animate it the way in which it was drawn. Wipe up, down
etc is not good enough. It is a technical drawing so it would be time
consuming to draw lots of smaller lines or curves.
Is there any way to do this? Is there an add-on that I can download?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
