SYMPTOMS
When you type text in a Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 presentation or in a Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2003 presentation, and you type the same word two times, PowerPoint does not flag the repeated word. This behavior occurs if you delete one or more characters in the first word and then you retype the same characters. When you check the spelling in the presentation, PowerPoint no longer flags the repeated word.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, move the insertion point to the end of the second word, and then press SPACEBAR.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.
