Reapplying Notes Master Layout Does NOT Work

[David]

Hello,

I,m using PowerPoint 07 and have a template saved as a .pot (compatibility
Mode).

In the Master Notes Page, I have a Header with the first line set at 22 TNR,
bold, and centered.

The second line is set at 12 TNR, not bold, and left aligned.

I also have a slide image, a footer, and a body.

On files created from the above template, when I reapply the Notes Layout
and select the Reapply master box (Slide image and Body are checked by
default and I leave them checked), all my header text is reformatted to 21
TNR bold (sometimes) or it's formatted to 12 TNR bold (other times) and my
slide is ALWAYS deleted.

Is there a known problem with reapplying the Notes Page Layout? I've been
looking for hours and the only thing I've seen that matches my problem is a
thread on this site titled "How do I apply a new notes layout to all slides?"
started by Pat. At the very end of the thread, Dawn states she has the same
problem as I am having, but no one replied.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

David

p.s. just in case you're wondering if I tride the macro in the link (posted
by Lucy Thomson in Pat's thread) Reapply the Notes Master to each Notes Page
in a presentation http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00760.htm. I did try it and it
works great. Unfortunately it automattically incorrectly reformats the header
text and delets the image slide for every notes page .
