I have been inserting equations into my powerpoint 2010.

I realized that after I have created the equation and save/closed the presentation.

I discovered that when open the presentation again, the text box containing the equation have been converted to drawing.



This is very frustrating as I can no longer edit the equations or copy the created equations for other slides that need to be created.

Appreciate any help given to retain the equations so that it is editable after saving.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Sunny

Are you saving as a pptx. ppt does not support the new equations

Nope, I am saving it as Powwerpoint 97-2003 presentation.

97-2003 IS the old ppt format and it does not support the new equations.

Ooops, thanks John for the advise.

I missed read your initial advise. I thought I was suppose to save in ppt.

Will try with pptx and see how it good.

Thanks very much for your prompt response. Will certainly save me quite a bit of time editing the slides.
