Before playing the animation, you'll set the text font and size for the time text that will display. If the Draw toolbar isn't present, click View, point to Toolbars, and click Draw. Set the text font to Arial, 26pt, bold.

Click the Open Animation Controls button and click Options. Click By number of frames and click Calculate. Set the Frame duration to 0.1. Uncheck Restore state after playing so that the original state of the data before the animation was played is not restored after the animation has played. The final time slice and time text will be retained. Click Options to hide the play and record options so you can see the animation in the display.

Click the Play button.

Examine the increase in recorded population over time. When the animation is finished, click File on the Main menu and click Save.
