Hi,
I am trying to figure something out.I have a document created in ppt 2oo3
and I want to open it and edit in ppt 2007. I open the document and it
displays in compatibility mode. I choose the placeholder (text box) and the
text inside is out of the box (but actually it is ok, just the view seems to
be out of the ordinary). I go ahead and edit the text and it almost
disappears (just the bottom of the fonts may show, some or all). If I select
another slide and then go back to the one I edited, it looks fine (with the
editing inplace).

So it seems that the view is corrupted in some way, but when moving away
from and back to the slide it looks ok. This is a bit annoying especially
because I have to similar workstations and it persists only on one of them.
Running XP w./Office 2007.

note.This just seems to occur on the PPT2007. Not on the PPT 2003.

I hope my explanations have made sense.

Thanx in advance
