In PowerPoint, animating table components is not possible unless you ungroup the table. Once your table is ungrouped, you can animate the ungrouped table components as you wish. However, for those of you who don’t want to ungroup your table, there is another workaround where you don’t actually apply any animation to the table components, but when you play the slide containing the table, it looks like your table components are animating!
