Coppying design - didn't affect colors of the already existing sha

[Completely_lost]

Hi all!

I am working on an existing presentation which was written by another guy
(whom I can't reach).
I changed the design to the design of another presentation (format-->slide
design-->browse). The layout and backrounds has changed - but all the shapes
did not change colors. (i.e. the fill, line and text colors of the existing
shapes didn't change). Also - the font of texts didn't change.
Under the "color scheme" task pane the color scheme has indeed changed to my
desired colors - which effects new shapes i'm drawing but not the ones which
already existed before.

This is really really important because i have to reformat ~200 slides to
the new company colors (who makes all this !@$$*# descicions???) and i really
don't want to do it shape-by-shape.

Thank you all very mych!!!

http://www.echosvoice.com/colorschemes.htm should help explain what's
happening. I think you'll probably have to go shape-by-shape, but the Format
Painter can help you speed that up.
