Change default setting ...

[Guest]

When I want to insert a picture from file in PPT, the list in the "Insert Picture" window always deafults to thumbnails
This does not happen in any other Microsoft program that I use
How do I change that default setting - and make it stay?

[CRITICAL UPDATE - Anyone using Office 2003 should install the critical
update as soon as possible. From PowerPoint, choose "Help -> Check for
Updates".]

Hello,

This behavior has been changed in Office 2003. In Office 2003 applications,
the Insert -> Picture -> From file.. dialog retains the view settings from
the last time the dialog was used.
