am using ppt 2002 on xpsp2
when I paste text with bullets into ppt, the bullets are not
transferred, just plain text
am I doing something wrong or is the software flawed?

David,
Don't know if it will work in PPT 2002, it does in PPT 2003. When you paste
in the other slide, do you get a little icon at the bottom of the pasted
text, it is called Paste options, when you click on it choose keep source
formatting. Does that resolve the problem?
