PPT2003 Text Animation Does Not Play Properly ONLY in PPT2002

Here, I think, is an odd one.

A presentation created in PowerPoint 2003 uses the wipe animation to reveal
bulleted text. It plays fine in 2003 (duh!), 2000 and even way back to '97.
But when played in 2002, some of the bulleted text appears immediately,
PORTIONS of bulleted text (i.e. the middle of the sentence) animate, and
then the rest of the text appears. Eventually, the slide ends up completely
built.

When looking at Custom Animation for the text, just the middle of the
sentence appears - not the whole bullet point.

If I reprogram the wipe effect in 2002, it plays properly everywhere. How
odd is that?

Has the 'critical update' for PPT 2003 been installed? In PPT (and connected
to internet) go to HELP >> CHECK FOR UPDATES >> follow prompts.
This cures many strange behaviors associated with PPT 2003.
