I don't like any of the existing design templates. What can I do?
You can create your own design template and then save it for future use. Start by modifying an existing template and then save it as a design template in the Save As dialog box. Chapter 6 covers this in more detail.
My presentation didn't save in the folder where I thought it would.
By default, your presentation is saved in the My Documents folder unless you manually specify another location in the Save As dialog box. To change this default, choose Tools, Options from the main PowerPoint menu and choose a different Default File Location in the Save tab.
In the Open dialog box, verify that you made the appropriate selection from the Files of Type drop-down list. For example, if you're looking for a PowerPoint presentation or a Web page, be sure you've selected that option. Also, verify that you're searching in the right folder. If you still can't find your presentation, do a search using the Find dialog box (Tools, Search from within the Open dialog box). You can also perform similar searches using the Search task pane.
I want to open my presentation in a browser, but the Open in Browser option isn't available from the menu next to the Open button in the Open dialog box.
You must have saved the presentation in a Web format (such as .HTM, .HTML, .HTX, or .ASP) in order to open it in a browser. To save as a Web page, choose File, Save as Web Page.
