Summary:

Microsoft PowerPoint version 2.00 may crash during a spelling check if the Added Words dictionary exceeds 512 bytes in size. The Added Words dictionary is a custom dictionary where words can be stored that are not already in the MS Dictionary. If it exceeds 512 bytes in size, PowerPoint may crash, either during spell checking or during additions to the Added Words dictionary.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PowerPoint version 2.00. This problem was corrected in PowerPoint version 2.00a.

To obtain an update to the current version of PowerPoint, call Microsoft End User Sales and Service at (800) 426-9400 or Microsoft International Customer Service at (206) 936-8661.
