I have PPT 97 on Windows 2000. Is there any way to change
the background color of a text box while I'm editing the
text. The problem is only with white text. When I click
in the box to edit the text, it gives me a white
background, which renders my white text invisible and very
difficult to see what I'm doing. If there's a way to edit
the textbox without it giving me a background, I'd love to
hear about it. thanks
 
Nathan,

You need to change the "color scheme". It sounds like you have the "background" color set to "white".

Format menu > "slide color scheme" > Custom
