Strange results in text box

[larry m]

Using powerpoint 2007.

Getting strange results when entering text that starts with capital or
special characters. Typing $4 results in the 4 overlaying the $ or Be
results in the e overlaying the B; or Gx has the x overlaying the G. Don't
seem to have a problem with other capital letters. Tried several fonts with
similar results. Doesn't happen consistenly and doesn't matter if in
bulleted list or not. Any ideas?
