Problem in resizing the textbox.

[Karam]

Hi,

I am facing problem in resizing the textbox on a new slide by draging the
mouse. In order to rectify this i have tried the following:

1. detect and repair from the help menu.
2. Reinstalling Microsoft Office 2003.

But it doesnt worked for me.

Please let me know what exactly is the root cause of this problem.

Do let me know if you need any further information.

Thanks
Karam Singh

A thought: If this is a text box, not a placeholder, it it is likely to be
that the text box has automatically re-sized itself down to the size of the
text. If you want the shape to be bigger than the text, try using an
autoshape and adding the text to that.

Hi,

Thats ok.....What exaclty i trying here is first resize the
placeholder/textbox using mouse and secondly positioning of the
placeholder/textbox. For example. in a new slide i enters the text and
position is to the left top corner by draging it. In this case draging doesnt
works and also if I try to resize the textbox using mouse draging doesnt
works for me.

I have done the complete install of ms office 2003 with sp 2.

Thanks
