*Some* Captions Don’t Show in Slide Show – Why? And how to get them to?

My wife is using Elements 4.0 (and I’m not a user, so be patient with me if I sound like I don’t know what I’m talking about – I don’t). She has downloaded a bunch of pictures and wants to create a slide show. She entered a caption for every one of the pictures, and when she looks at the pictures in the Elements browser (?) it displays the caption under the picture image.

However, when she cretes a slide show from all of these pictures, a certain number of them (and it’s always the same ones) display no caption in the slide show image. She can pick just one slide (that shows the presence of a caption in the browser), make a slide show out of it, and it shows no caption.

I asked her if she did anything special with those pics, and she says that the only thing she *might* have done, was to use the red-eye remover tool. After she got rid of the red-eye, she deleted the original picture and kept the edited one (which, don’t forget, shows the caption, when viewing the pic in the broswer).

Does anyone have some advice as to how she can get all the pictures to reveal their captions in the slide show?

Thanks

To clarify: When the photos were downloaded from the camera, Elements automatically removed red eye (the red-eye removal tool was not used) from the pictures on which the captions are missing.

Not a reply to the slide-show query, but a definite conclusion reached about upgrading my PE2.
I was worried about PE3, when I read some of the posts, and I sure as heck am dubious about PE4. 8(

PE2, meanwhile, chugs along nicely.
