We found it!!! A collegue of mine wrote a VB script that applies the transparent background to the PowerPoint Slide. The script was derived from another forum, and is shown here; 

Sub MakeBgTrans()  'ccf 5/13/02      With ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange          .FollowMasterBackground = msoFalse          .DisplayMasterShapes = msoFalse          With .Background              .Fill.Visible = msoFalse              .Fill.Transparency = 1#              .Fill.Solid          End With      End With  End Sub  

Once applied to the powerpoint slide, sett he fill of the anchored frame in FrameMaker to no fill and it works like a charm.
