Re: Powerpoint 2007 Crashes when viewing or trying to apply themes
Echo S
I can tell you it doesn't happen here, and I don't recall its ever being
reported here in the newsgroup, either, so I'd guess it's not a common
issue.
What is the error PPT gives you when it closes? What theme are you trying to
apply to it, and how are you doing that? (Trying to figure out exactly when
in the "applying themes" or "viewing themes" process the crash happens.)

to a 2007 Theme. In particular, the 2003 template "Compass" when converted to
a 2007 Theme often--but not always--bombs when I try to change to another
Theme or re-apply the Compass Theme. I can change color sets within the Theme
at will, but not the Theme. I can also alter the Compass Theme and save the
changes. But, when attempting to actually apply a different Theme, the
application closes.
