User-defined format for bullets/# in textbox for Powerpoint use!!

Because I couldn't change the format of the bullets inside a text box, I was
forced to paste something into Power Point as an MS Word object. When I
resized the text to fit the slide, it adjusted the font in a way that became
illegible! It took me an hour to figure-out how to get this corrected!

Is there a way to change the format of bullets & numbers within a textbox?

Either... on the slide or the slide master ---
Put your cursor in the text box next to the bullet
right click>>>bullets and numbering
Customize to choose your BP
Choose the color of the BP
Adjust the size of the BP in relation to the text.
Hope this helps!!!

I guess I should have clarified better. I wanted to increase the indent on
the bulleted text, instead of having the default hanging indents. The PP
Bullets and Numbering window does not allow you to customize indent as Word
does.
Thanks for the response, though.
