I cannot get rid of the automatic bullets in text boxes in powerpoint 2007.
Can anyone help?
 
Alex,
You mean textboxes you draw using the Insert tab on the ribbon - and
choosing textbox?
Those have bullets when you draw them. On the Home tab of the ribbon in the
paragraph group click on the bullet button, now right-click the textbox, in
the menu click set as default textbox or something to that effect.
Is your problem solved?
 
It worked! Thanks!

In addition to Luc's suggestion, once you have the textbox formatted the way
you want, you can right-click it and choose "set textbox default."

I have a similar problem.
I can't create a default text box with a default formatting. What I want is a text box with bullets, and different bullet symbols depending on the indentation.
I manage to create a default text box with the right font, size, etc, but the problem is that when I tab (shift+alt+arrow) between levels, the bullet symbol doesn't change, and the same symbol as in the first level is kept.

How should I solve this problem?
Thanks
