Is there a way to make the bulletted list placeholder
use "Step 1", "Step 2", etc. as bullet points?
 
Of course, should this be a "can't do without" feature, you could write some
code to do it for you.

For instance, instead of bulleting the list, just type a '~' symbol where
you want the steps to be inserted. Then run a macro/code to search for
these, and replace with "Step x - " with increments beginning on each slide
at 1. Might be a good starter code project to begin your journey to the
dark side of VBA. (Insert appropriate sound bite of evil laugh here)

Yes, B is correct: actually use "Step 1" for the bullet
point, instead of bullet. Thanks for your answers
folks. _c

Ooooh, B, I think I'm busted. I totally misread that question!

You're right, that would have to be done manually.

Are you asking if PowerPoint can use the words "step 1 - " ( and increment
the number) INSTEAD of the bullet point character?

No, I haven't heard of a way, yet.
