master slide text boxes

[lan]

when i create my own text boxes in the master slide and save as design template, when i come to use that design template in a new presentation the text boxes are not editable in normal view.

how can i make them editable?
or am i restricted to only using the two text boxes powerpoint gives me in the master slide that are AutoLayout text boxes?

Before v 2007 you are on the master. You can use the two text box layout though
