A couple of ideas: 1) Do you have more than one master in the presentation? If so, does the problem get better if you put the master causing the problem first in the list of masters? 2) Check your AutoCorrect Options and see if the last three boxes are checked on the "AutoFormat As You Type" tab. In this case, you are really interested in the autofit title text and autofit body text boxes. If they are checked, uncheck them and see if that helps. If you need more help, post back.

It used to be when I changed the font size, face, or color on the master slide it affected all the slides. Now it does not. All my the text in my first level was at 24 pitch but somehow it changed to 20. I checked the master slide and it still says 24. I changed the master to 28 and the text changed to 24 so there is a difference of 4 between what is on the master and what is on the actual slides. I can't for the life of me understand how or why that happened. Does anyone have any clue?
