Adjusting Space Between Bullets and Text

[JSinger]

Is there a a way to adjust the space between the bullets and where text
begins in PowerPoint? This is easily done in Corel Presentations (control +
Shift + > or <), but I can't seem to find any menu choices or keystrokes for
doing it in PowerPoint.

Can anyone help me or is this just another shortcoming of this program?

Thanks.

You are going to want to turn on the ruler, then use the thingies on the
ruler to adjust the spacing. Two FAQ entries to help you out:
First, http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00752.htm tells you what all the little
thingies on the ruler are called so that you know which one to adjust for
your specific change.
Second: http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00794.htm gives you a macro you can use to
apply tab stops to a number of text boxes more easily.

The little slides on the top of the ruler appear to allow me to fiddle with
the location of the bullets. Thanks. Although it's still not as easy as
Presentations, I am definitely grateful that I can at least accomplish the
task!! Thank you very much!
