Default Open PPT with blank slide

Office 2007 - Vista SP2 Ultimate 32 bit

I want PowerPoint to open with a blank slide each time it opens. I have tried using the Display use "The view saved in the file" setting. It still opens with the Title slide on the slide itself, but, the slide in the Nav pane is blank. I have used this setting as described in the Help files on two other machines and it works, so, not sure what it not working on this one machine.

Any suggestions?

Jan

Just the same, Echo's right. If you want a blank slide, apply the blank
layout to the first slide that PPT gives you automatically. Costs
nothing,
saves trouble in the long run.


heh, you're too easy. :-)
