Default revealing bullet items

My Administrator requested to be able to reveal bullet
points on a single slide in a custom order.

They are doing a management retreat and doing a game show
and there are a list of possible answers. they only want
to reveal the answers as they are given and still be able
to see the questions and the previously revealed answers.

Any ideas. I am not an avid Powerpoint user, but I know
some of you guys will know how to do this right away.

Default revealing bullet items

Not having the newer version(s), which would have allowed you to use
"Triggers", you can do one of the following:

1. Have several slides with action buttons that take you to the desired
slide so the desired item(s) show(s), or,

2. If you don't mind learning a little VBA programming, you can do it with
code. If you are thinking of a Family Feud type game, I have a sample file
that you can download from my site:

these options.
