Hi John<br>Thanks for your help. Well explained and worked like a charm. I also discovered that by moving the blank rectangle to different corners of the original object you can make it expand from any of the four corners, which is perfect for my slide, as it has 4 boxes in a 2 x 2 matrix.<br><br>Regards<br><br>Terry

PowerPoint is a slide show presentation program currently developed by Microsoft. PowerPoint presentations consist of a number of individual pages or "slides" that may contain text, graphics, sound, movies, and other objects, which may be arranged freely. The presentation can be printed, displayed live on a computer, or navigated through at the command of the presenter. Slides can also form the basis of webcasts.
