SYMPTOMS
If you are using the AutoLayout slide with two text objects on it, only the
left text object will appear in outline view. The object appears this way
even if you delete the text object on the left.
NOTE: In PowerPoint 4.0, only the left text object can have a build effect
applied to it.
CAUSE
In PowerPoint, only two text objects appear on a slide in outline view: the
title and the body object. All other text objects are hidden in outline
view. The two-column AutoLayout uses the left text object as the body
object. The right text object is simply an additional text object that has
been added to the slide.
STATUS
This behavior is by design of Microsoft PowerPoint.
