 - Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows, versions 4.0 and 4.0a
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
SYMPTOMS
========
 
If you convert a Microsoft ClipArt Gallery object in PowerPoint version 4.0
for Windows to display as an icon, you will not be able to convert it back
so that it displays as the original picture.
 
WORKAROUNDS
===========
 
If the original clip art image is still available, either from Microsoft
ClipArt Gallery or as a separate graphic file, you can delete the object
that is displayed as an icon and insert a new copy of the graphic.
 
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PowerPoint for Windows,
versions 4.0 and 4.0a. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
