Hello,
I'm new here. So here is the dilemma. I have to maintain a book that has a large list of names with:
- Name
- location
- picture
- border made out of a shape
I have 200 of these. Now, if by chance a new arrival comes through and he needs to go alphabetically between the last name alberts and barts. I have to manually move 199 spaces in PowerPoint, to create that one space up on top between those two names.
I align center and group each person with their outside border, picture, name and location.
So when, I do this manually, when we do this what happens is the alignment of the items is usually different from page to page.
Ex:
- The boxes don't line up and you see them jump from page to page
- The text is not aligned throughout all the boxes vertically and horizontally
- the pictures are not aligned to the box
- the pictures are not aligned horizontally across and vertically down in their rows and columns
The other problem:
We have 300 of these. Each contains the following:
- A outline box
- four text boxes
Again, when we have to move these we have to keep grouping and aligning to get the first spot empty in order to put in the latest achievement.
When we do this what happens is the alignment of the items is usually different from page to page.

- The text is not aligned throughout all the boxes
As this takes us very long and sometimes hours at a time, if someone could be a wizard and help that would be very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Ruby
