Powerpoint Mac problem

[undisclosed]

Hello
I have a 2.5gHz MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.8
I recently attempted to use PowerPoint for the first time on thi
machine and all of my templates (including the default templates) an
notes pages display in Greek (the language, not letter size).
I've gone through all of my preference/property settings, made sure th
default language was English...not sure what else I can do
If I create new text on the page myself I can plug in an acceptabl
font, but it defeats the purpose of using PPT for me then. I'd like t
use the templates

Any suggestions are welcome

Thanks
Jef
