I am relatively new at attempting animation with Poser 4/PP. Do any of you know if it is possible to start an animation with a simple object (box, ball, cylinder, etc.) with a specific texture, then during the animation sequence have the texture change throughout the sequence? I attempted several different methods/variations and have yet to have success. Any assistance or direction toward tutorial guidance would be greatly appreciated.

You can`t actually change the texture in poser 4 or propack but in propack you can change the colour of the object in animations

The main trick is to be sure you check the Animatable check box BEFOREHAND, for the materials you want to affect. Then move to a new frame and change that material to the color you want; move to another frame, make another change, and so on. The result will have smooth changes of color. You can't shift from one texture image map to another, but you can change the "intensity" of the texture map, or anything else that shows up as a number or a slider on this materials panel.

Here's a quick illustration. I checked Animatable, then moved to frame 15 and set the color to blue; then moved to frame 22 and set the color to violet.

Thank you so much people - well - I really wanted to use Poser for this one. I guess it's back to trying to grind it through Bryce instead. Thanx again!

I know it's not much help, but that is one thing that P5 can do, animate textures as well as materials.
