Custom Animation of Excel Line Graph

[Gordzilla]

I have a PP slideshow which contains an Excel Line graph.
I used the custom animation to make each of the lines on the graph appear on
mouse click.
There are three lines.
Is it possible to make the animation do the following:
Line 1 appears
Line 2 appears
Line 1 disappears
Line 3 appears
Slide ends

What version of PowerPoint are you using?

In 2002 and newer this is fairly simple, in 200 and prior, it can be faked.

Ok, steps to do this.

1) Ungroup the chart (repeat until this is no longer an option)
2) Select each of the shapes that make up a single line and group these
(repeat for each line)
3) Add an entrance animation to the line group (wipe, fade, or strips works
nicely)
Set to on click - fast
4) Add the same type of animation on the second line
Set to On Click - Fast
5) Add an exit animation to the first line group by selecting it and then
clicking on Add Effect
Set to With Previous - Fast
6) Repeat for additional lines
