    - Animation Sequence starting on 1st slide not 12th Hi All, I have a 15 slide presentation with the 12th slide having an animation sequence that loops. It works great, but when I run the presentation, it starts on the 12th slide and then it ignors all the slides before. Also, mouse click won't get me out of the 12th slide to finish the presentation. Can anyone give me a hint? Thanks, Michele Tag: Maximum size for ppt medical poster? Tag: 397619

    - applying multiple slide masters in a presentation Hello: I am using two basic slide layouts in my presentation: one with one large text box, and one with two side-by-side half-size text boxes. I would like to apply a separate slide master to either layout. However, while the "one large text box" slide master seems to apply okay (I think it is the default), I cannot figure out how to apply the "two side-by-side half-size text boxes" one when I make a slide of the other layout. I think, perhaps, that what I am missing is some way to choose a slide layout and then make a slide master specifically for that layout. Does anyone know how to do this? I am using PPT 2003. Thank you, Aaron Tag: Maximum size for ppt medical poster? Tag: 397607

    - PPT screenshow on extended desktop? (I tried first on the XP group, but no answer - maybe I asked the wrong people, so I'm trying here.) With XP Pro, I extended my desktop onto a second screen. Then I opened PowerPoint, opened a PPT-2003 file, and moved it over to the second screen to work on it. At some point I clicked "Screen Show", and the screen show came up on ... the first screen. Why didn't it come up on the second screen, and is there anything I can do to get it onto the second screen? (This actually has practical applications -- I tried to use the extended desktop technique to attach a projector as the second screen - but if I can't get the screen show to appear on the second screen, then, well, forget that idea.)

    - Lost data from chart created via VBA from excel. PROBLEM REPORT Powerpoint version now in use: 2003 Version the file was created in or opened in since, if any: 2003 Windows version: XP Other hardware involved (printer, etc): none Description of problem: We are using VBA in Excel to build powerpoint presentation with data from in the spreadsheet. After a step through the vba code we determined that the saving action is causing the data inserted intot the bar charts to disappear. We are able to see the charts after saving the presentaion but the charts disappear once we click on them to access the data (they do not come back if we save changes to ppt after clicking the graph). This only happens with graphs, all other objects populated in the same way are fine. When I do this: click on graph Here's what happens (include text of any error messages that appear): no error messages appear, the data used to populate the bar graph disappears and so does the graph (since there is no data to be displayed) or Here's what I expect to happen, but it doesn't: Here's what I've already tried to solve the problem: used variables to populated datasheet in the ppt, then tried using copy and paste.

    - can't open ppt 95 files in office 2007 I just installed ppt office 2007. I have hundreds of old ppt presentations that I reference from time to time. They are either ppt 2003 or ppt 95 version files. It would appear that office 2007 cannot open the 95 version files. Now what do I do? I no longer have the original ppt software on my computer as I did not choose that option during the installation of office 2007. I guess I jsut assumed that brand new product would be backward integrated. I'm a bit ticked about this but for now I'm looking for a solution. Any ideas? Anybody?

    - Sharing Custom Color themes I have developed 8 custom color PowerPoint themes tied to my company brand. These are working very well for me, but others at my company would also like to use them. I've saved the PowerPoint with the custom themes as a template (potx), but when I send the template to my colleagues, the custom color themes are not available. I would think a template would hold the color themes, but they do not. Is there any way to automatically add .thmx files to your custom library without having to save each theme separately?

    - Tool bar question Well it's not really the tool bar, don't know what to call it! Down at the bottom of the screen when you're editing a slide, the bottom-most bar says "Slide X of Y" on the left side, then there's another box to its right. A presentation I'm working on has the word "RISK" there somehow, and I don't know how to get to it to get rid of it. Likely no one would ever really see it since you'd just hit "run slideshow", but just the same I'd like to remove the word. The original presentation was created by someone else, so it wasn't something I did to add the word. Sorry that I can't come up with a better descriptor of this...if I could add a picture I could explain it much better! Thanks in advance for any ideas. Tag: Maximum size for ppt medical poster?

    - Two (Asst.) Heads Share Three Subordinates... I'm using Power Point 2003 and I don't have much experience with Power Point. I'm starting with the Chief. As subordinates of the Chief there are two Assistant Chiefs. Off the two Assistant Chiefs there are three Corporals. That's where my problem begins. The three Corporals each have a number of Patrol Officers that answer to them, but the Corporals answer equally to the two Assistant Chiefs. I want a connector line from each Assistant Chief drawn to the three Corporals and I want everything centered and balanced. I can create two subordinate Corporals from one Assistant Chief and one subordinate Corporal from the other Assistant Chief, but then everything looks off balance that way. I want the Patrol Officers (co-workers) added as subordinates to the same boss so that they will branch vertically in columns and I can do that. Again, where I am having trouble is between the two Assistant Chiefs and three Corporals. Tag: Maximum size for ppt medical poster? Tag: 397501

I can't figure out how to add a title to a slide that doesn't already have one. It seems that a title has to do with a shape, but I can't identify one specific shape that is always the title shape. Any suggestions or explanations why this can't easily be done is appreciated. DOesn't seem like it should be very hard.
