Color of Text Box When Inserting Text in PowerPoint
We created a PowerPoint presentation that has "photo" for the background of
all slides. When we click on a text box on a slide and start to enter Text (such as for the Title or bulleted list), the text box turns "white" (it's fill color is white). When your Font color is white you cannot see the text you are entering. Is there any default setting to change the color of the Text Box to "clear"? Is there any VB macro to change the background fill color of text boxes? Thankyou. -- Linny |

Is this PowerPoint 97 or 2000? Go to Format Slide Color Scheme and change the
Background color to something that contrasts with white. This was changed in PowerPoint 2002, which chooses a better color for you when you edit text. -- Sonia Coleman Microsoft PowerPoint MVP Team Autorun Software, Templates and Tutorials "Linny" wrote in message ...
