Auto re-center after deleting an object - how to turn it off

[Finding the next record in a column]

Hi there,
I am making montages for my company in Powerpoint. These montages are
always very large (42x56 inches) and so i'm working at the 30% zoom.
Whenever i delete an object on the slide, it automatically moves the view to
the center of the slide. It takes so long for me to delete an object, then
try to find where i was on the slide again. Is there any way to turn off
this so-called auto-re-centering option? It's unbelievably annoying.

Thanks

Have you installed sp2?

I'd tell you but i have no idea what sp2 is...

sp2 is service pack 2.

Go to the large office button > PowerPoint Options
Click "resources" and at the bottom where it says "About Powerpoint 2007"
can you see SP2 in the version number?

IIRC SP2 cured this problem
