(Power Point 2002)
When you do a figure (or autofigure) in a presentation and required a border
over the element at all times. How to make this automatically?

Hi,
Like Word Art? Go to Format Word art (right click on it to get the menu
option), then select the "Default for new objects" check box. That will
remember most settings when you apply a new one.

I'm not sure you can make all figures have a border automatically, but you can
certainly reduce it to one mouse-click.
Have a look at http://shapestyles.pptools.com
If you only need a few styles regularly, the free demo will be all you need.

You can draw an autoshape and add a border, then right-click and choose Set
Autoshapes Default. This will cause a border (and whatever fill you chose)
to be applied to the autoshapes, anyway. If you need borders on the slide
placeholders, add a border to the placeholders on the slide master
(View|Master|Slide Master) and title master.
That might get you partway there, at least.
