In a bulleted list it is possible to have a different bullet style, size or
colour on each line. When I try to do this with a numbered list, it changes
the whole list, even if I make sure I also select the end of paragraph
marker. How do I get round this?
Thanks
Debbie

Phippsy,
What version of PPT are you using?
It does seem possible in version 2003. Just select the bulleted point and
alter the colour and size of the bullet in the bullets and numbering dialog
(Format - Bullets and numbering). The colour of the text you can change by
using the font colour button on the formatting toolbar.

I am using XP and also 2003 and in both of them it actually changes the
colour or size of the whole list even when I go through the dialogue box. You
are talking about bullets whcih work fine but I am talking about a NUMBERED
list which does not react in the same way.
Thanks

Phippsy,
Sorry missed the numbering part. Only workaround I can think of is to type
your numbered list, copy it, paste it in as a enhanced metafile or windows
metafile, ungroup the thing twice, and format each individual number. After
formatting the numbers you can select and regroup if necessary.
Maybe someone else will have a better suggestion. If so be my guest.
