When choosing the layout of the slide it is now possible to ex. have a title
on the top and 2 different contents under the title. If I choose to place a
photo on the left and a text on the right - how can I easily switch between
this - so that the photo comes on the right and the text on the left.

This was no problem in 2003 - but now in 2007 it seems as if the choices are
limited.
 
Hi Katherine

You will need to make your own slide layout:
1. Go to View -> Slide Master
2. Scroll down through the layouts until you find 'Two Content Layout' ->
right click -> duplicate layout
3. On your new layout, swap the position of the two content boxes (if you
use the alignment buttons this should be quite simple)
4. Right click your new layout -> rename layout -> call it something like
'reversed two content'
5. You should now see your new layout available in the layout dropdown menu
on the home tab. Switching a slide from 'two content' to 'reversed two
content' should achieve what you want.
6. You can copy this new layout into any other set of masters and it will
pick up the formatting/content/etc of that master.

Hope that makes sense. I haven't finished my coffee yet....
