I wish to get input from a group and there are several answers that are
expected.
Is there a way to make them appear in the order they are offered?

One group say A, B, C and gets
A
B
C
on screen, the other offers B,C,A and gets
B
C
A
 
If you use PowerPoint 202 (aka PowerPoint XP) or PowerPoint 2003, then you
can use triggers to reveal answers in any order, simply by clicking on them.

Is this what you are asking to do?

Close enough. I just didn't know what to look for in help.
Now I'll look for Trigger, Dale, Gabby and maybe even Roy.
Unless you mispelled ti then it'll be tigger, Pooh, Owl and Piglet.
 
If you actually want to change the order that they are in the list (not
just the order they show up), you could have a lot of different slides
that are hyperlinked together (not too bad if you only have three
answers, but it the number of slides grows rapidly as you add more
answers). Alternatively, you could get just the effect you want with no
extra slides by using VBA. However, if just having them appear in the
right order is good enough, then the triggers solution is much easier.
