Change Default Template

[SamDev]

I'm using PowerPoint 2003 and would like when I click the "New" icon for my
company template to open instead instead of a blank presentation - I know I
can select the template but trying to save time - so how can I change which
template the "New" icon opens.

Much thanks.

Since you are running 2003, you want to see the note from Sonia at the end
of the FAQ entry. You can set a template as the default and still have your
blank template in this version....
