Text Missing from Text Boxes

I am running PPT2002 with SP3. Here's a strange one...

I have created several new presentations where I will insert a text box. As
soon as I click out of the text box, some of the beginning of my text
disappears.

I have checked my indents and alignments and they are ok. The only way I can
get the presentation to display the correct text is to add my letter back to
the beginning of the word. For example, if my text box says "This is a dog",
I have to type the "T" in "This" twice.

This is a brand new presentation, but the original template was created in
an older version of PowerPoint. Could this be my problem?

Any other ideas what may be causing this or how to fix it?

Thanks in advance
 
Wow, this sounds very strange. If you want to email a sample slide, I can
try to take a look.

Maybe it's a problem with the text anchor point. Double-click the textbox
and go to the Textbox tab. What's set for the anchor point?
