How to reuse animations defined in XAML?

Hi,

Anyone know how to reuse an animation that has been defined within a
storyboard (in a resource) on multiple UI elements?

For example, lets imagine a generic animation that involves a path that has
been designed in Expression Interactive Designer. Without copying the same
animation many times in the XAML file, is there anyway from code to clone
it, and apply it to other UI elements? Maybe the UI elements are being added
dynamically, and given the syntax of doing DoubleAnimationUsingPath in XAML,
lets imagine I don't want to try to replicate the animation definition in
code. For each new UI element, I want to use the same predefined animation.
I cannot seem to get the right combination using Storyboard.SetTargetName,
etc.

Thanks for your thoughts and ideas.

Aaron
