Footer doesn't appear, no matter what

I have a template in PPT 2000. When I try to add a footer, it simply does
NOT show up. I've tried by adding a text box, I've looked to see if it slid
off my slide master, nothing is working. I noted in a search of this group
others have had this problem, but there hasn't been a clear-cut solution.
If anyone has a fix for this I would appreciate it. I'm under a tight
deadline and I'm starting to lose hope.
 
Have you gone to View > Header and Footer > Slide and made sure that you have
checked the footer fields that you want to have displayed on your slides?

I'm betting the footer placeholder has been deleted.

Go to View/Master/Slide Master, then go to Format/Master Layout. Check the
option for "footer" and click OK to add the footer placeholder back to the
slide.
 
That was exactly it ... thank you so much!
