Cannot Figure Out How to Use Multiple Text Masters

[Rebecca]

I created a POT file for a client in both PPT 2003 (PC) version and
PPT 2004 (Mac) versions. When creating a new presentation on the PC
using the template, I can easily use the title and both the text
templates by simply selecting the slide I want to apply the template
to and using the Slide Design pane to apply it - I can see the small
icon representing the alternate template.

I cannot seem to find a way to do this on the Mac. I can see all three
templates in Master Slide view, but I cannot get the alternate text
template to apply to a selected slide and it is making me crazy! My
client is trying to use the POT files on her Mac to create a new
presentation and can't get anything but the one title template and one
of the two text template designs to show up. I have looked on both
this forum and the general PPT forum and can't seem to find the answer
I need.

Thanks!

I seem to remember from reading a post in this mac powerpoint newsgroup -
that the multiple master feature of powerpoint, has not been enabled on the
mac version of powerpoint.

Why this feature is not accessible on the mac version of powerpoint I've no
idea
