Multiple masters 2003 to 2007 conversion

Hi,
I am working on a presentation in PPT 2003.
The presentation utilises multiple masters.

This works fine ecept when someone else in my office opens my file in 2007.
The multiple masters disappear.
At first I thought it could be to do with compatibility mode - but I have
found that comp mode is enabled as soon as PPT 2007 discovers that a 2003
file is being opened.

Can anyone offer any advice?
 
Dear Lyndon,

the concept of Layouts, Masters, Templates and Designs (NEW!) has changed a
lot in PowerPoint 2007. There are new features in PowerPoint 2007: Custom
Layouts, Desingn Colors with 12 instead of 8 colors.

The best advice I can give is:
- Use PowerPoint 2003 to design 2003 (and 2002/XP) templates (*.pot files)
- Use PowerPoint 2007 to design 2007 templates (*.potx and *.thmx files)
- Do not use Mac to design templates for PC versions of PowerPoint.

Best regards,
Ute
