how do i get straight lines in Power Point 2007
When I draw lines now in PP2007 they will go anywhere but straight verticle
or horizontal. What do you have to do to get simple straight lines? |

how do i get straight lines in Power Point 2007
Thanks, Lars. What I have just realized is that if I am in a presentation
that I have just now created in 2007 I can draw horizontal and verticlal lines normally. The problem is when I create or edit lines in a presentation created in 2003. Then even if I use the Shift key they will not stay horizontal or vertical. I have to go into the properties and change the width to 0 t get to be vertical.

Have you applied SP1 for Office 2007? I'm not sure, but I think this was
maybe addressed in the service pack.... -- Echo [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://tinyurl.com/36grcd PowerPoint 2007 Complete Makeover Kit http://tinyurl.com/32a7nx "IRD" wrote in message ...
