Animating Bullets

[mww]

I'm working on a Powerpoint presentation, and I can't figure out how to do
the animation I want. Let's say my first three lines are a bullet, a
sub-bullet and a bullet. I want to show the first bullet, show the
sub-bullet, then I want the sub-bullet to disappear and the second bullet to
be positioned on the second line.

I know I've seen this before, but I can't figure out how to do it. After the
sub-bullet disappears, the second bullet is still on line three. Any advice
would be greatly appreciated.

First of all tell us the version of the PowerPoint that you are using.
As far as I think this will not be possible through animation
You can achieve this by deleting the second row, the third row automatically
reaches to the second,
now you can achieve this at runtime time either through coding or a macro

I've had a similar problem the way I got around it was to first create each
bullet as a seperate text box.

Position your second bullet in the same place as your sub bullett.

When you come to animate the slide show choose the animation you want for
your sub bullet then at the bottom of the custom annimation screen you should
have an option titled 'After animation' from there select Hide after
animation.

Then you will need to animate your second bullet

When you come to view your slide show you should see that your sub bullet
disapears after a few second and you can click your mouse to introduce your
second bullet when your sub bullet was previously.

The only other way I can think of would be to create a duplicate slides. The
first slide would have your first and sub bullet, the second slide would have
your first and second bullet.

Hope this helps & isn't too long winded!
