What if you want to use a single animation object (let's say DoubleAnimation) to target multiple objects?

You can programmatically change the TargetProperty to different objects: http://blogs.msdn.com/silverlight_sdk/archive/2008/03/26/target-multiple-objects-properties-with-one-animation-silverlight.aspx

Storyboard.SetTargetProperty(myDoubleAnimation1, "(Canvas.Left)");

why the target properties have to be put inside brackets?

the code gives me compilation error saying cannot convert from string to System.Windows.PropertyPath [referring to "(Canvas.Left)"]..

i am adding this method as Loaded="Create_And_Run_Animation" for my Canvas.

is this the problem??..can't i create a rectangle myRectangle on the canvas and call this method for MouseLeftButtonDown for the rectangle..i did but this ain't working too.
