I used to be able to see the designs of the slide templates in
PowerPoint 2004 so I could choose one. I can't anymore. All I can see
is the list of designs, not what they look like. In the Help file the
following information appears:

To select a template before you begin to create your slides, on the
New tab of the Project
Gallery, under Groups, click the Presentations triangle, and then
click Designs. Click the
design you want, and then click Open.

But when I go to the Groups, Presentations is not there, only Blank
Documents and My Templates.

How do I restore the Presentations so I can see the various slide
designs without having to open each in order as a new presentation and
then try to remember which was which?

Go into the Project Gallery, New page & take a look at the little button
below the pane where the list displays... Is the right half of it blue?

You've probably clicked the right half of that button to display the content
in List View. Click the Left half of the button to return to Gallery view.
