SYMPTOMS

When you install PowerPoint for Windows 95 on a computer that has an earlier version of PowerPoint, some clip art may be duplicated.

CAUSE

Because PowerPoint 4.0 contains some clip art not available in PowerPoint 7.0, when you upgrade from version 4.0 to 7.0, the version 4.0 clip art is not removed. Since some of the images that ship with PowerPoint 7.0 are the same as the ones that ship with PowerPoint 4.0, you will have some duplicate thumbnails in your ClipArt Gallery.

This problem is also caused by having PowerPoint 4.0 in a different folder than PowerPoint 7.0, which causes PowerPoint to find more than one of the same PCS file.

RESOLUTION

Search the hard disk to find all the PCS files and remove any duplicate PCS files, keeping any unique PCS filenames. Then refresh the ClipArt Gallery in the folder that holds the PCS files.
