PPT97: Set Up Show Dialog Box Won't Close w/ Invalid Number

• Microsoft PowerPoint 97 For Windows

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft PowerPoint, if you type the number for a slide that does not exist in the From or To boxes in the Set Up Show dialog box and then click OK, the Set Up Show dialog box will not close.
