powerpoint >> Edit Points (again)

Processor: Intel

I have read the previous string regarding editing points on a curve and I still have no idea how to do this. With the 1997-2004 version of PP, you could open "edit points" and then simply pull points on the curve into a new position. This no longer works. I get new open (white) points to add to the dark points, I get distortions in the curve with "local blips" - but nothing seems to just pull the curve points into a new position, and thus change the curve shape. Why is it so hard when it used to be so easy? What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried holding the Command key while dragging a point?

1. PPT keeps installing MS Graph again and again 

Powerpoint keeps installing Microsoft Graph components each time I 
double-click on a graph.
Several times, I did not cancel the installation, but it keeps doing it 
every time.
If I cancel the installation, it does not prevent MS Graph from working 
properly.

This happens since I upgraded to Office 2003.

Anybody knows how to avoid that?
Thanks

finished.  I can get the sound to play through several slides until it 
finishes, but can't get it start again.

5. Edit Points in an object 

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)

How can I edit the points of an object? In previous Word versions, the drawing toolbar included the command "Edit Points" which allowed me to reshape/adjust selected parts of an object made with the freeform tool.

I cannot find that command or ability in this version of Word.

Thanks!
