Problem with ppt in PP 2007
Hi
I have a PowerPoint presentation created in PowerPoint from Office XP which I just opened in PP from Office 2007 and noticed a weird problem I cannot solve. In the example slide at http://www.hold.orthohelp.com/Presentation1.pptx there is a superimposed vertical line of text that was not in the original. It does not appear in the slideshow but I cannot remove it. What is it and how do I get rid of it? Thanks, Jeff |

What the text says, is "Click to add file" It is a text place holder. If
you click on any item on the screen then hit the tab key to cycle through all the objects, it will show up as a very small item towards the bottom right of the slide. then it is just a matter of hitting delete. -- Michael Koerner MS MVP - PowerPoint wrote in message ...

Checking with the Replace Fonts tool in PPT 2007 I see that all the fonts used are marked with the TT icon. The printer is also installed. I'm in Windows 7 home premium 64 bit. Jeff |

Thank you. Done. Is there an option to disable it from appearing? It showed up in the middle of a 50 slide presentation. Jeff |

If you don't want it, then delete it if you want it as a reminder, when you
working on the slide, just drag it off the face of the slide and it should not appear during your slideshow. -- Michael Koerner MS MVP - PowerPoint wrote in message ...
