Hello

Every time use a hyphen in the middle of a sentence (not as a bullet) - it
causes the power point application to hang and requires "close task" via the
task manager.

Does anyone have a solution or know the cause of this phenomenon?

Many thanks!
 
Hey Terry,


1. As you guessed, this is not normal for any version of PowerPoint, which
are you using?

2. Is it a text box, an activeX text box, or a placeholder? These are also
treated differently.

3. Are there any addins loaded?

4. Have you done a detect and repair on Office?

5. Is it all fonts or just one?

6. What is the local printer (not the network one)?
