Inserting a question in to an existing quiz

Hi,

We're using version 6.1 of Presenter in PowerPoint 2000 and 2003. We're trying to insert a question in to the middle of an existing quiz. When I add a question in the quiz manager the newly inserted question overwrites one of my my existing question (slides), followed by a friendly error message dialog stating an unexpected error occured. The question never shows up in the quiz manager, just one of my existing questions gets splatted.

Looks like there's some sort of corruption occuring in the quiz that I can't fix without rewriting the entire quiz.

Does anyone know how to work around this problem?

Thanks in advance

Phil
