=20 Linda, Roy, I just tried doing what Roy suggested - change the font info by right clicking the text box > font I save the presentation, and sure enough, when I load it again, the changes have stuck! So it doesn't change the default for a new presentation, but it does seem to stick with a saved file. The caveat - This is in the beta of PowerPoint 11 NOT XP :-( =20 But at least it seems they have fixed for the next release.

Johnson Sent: Thursday, 9 January 2003 8:58 AM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx She wants to change the DEFAULT font for the text boxes tho, Roy. Not just manually change the font every time she creates a text box. Are you saying you can do this in PowerPoint 2002? Please tell me how! Thanks.
