He said he didn't want to use a table, and indeed it is not necessary.

Hi Simon

Create a 2-column table. Format the text in the second column with
bullets.

Hi all,

Going nuts right now. I'd really like to put a bullet point list
starting
half way through a line of text, but can't figure out how to do it.

For example:

2002-2003 --- Queen's award for export achievement

... where the --- represents the start of the bullet point list. i.e.
I'd
like to have some text to the left of the bullet point, *without* using
columns or tables (sadly, this would mess up the formatting for the
whole
rest of the document)

Is the bullet point strictly a paragraph-level entity? of course, this
is
possible:

2002-2003
--- Queen's award for export achievement

... but is is possible to have the date and then bullet point on the
same
line?

I've tried looking around Microsoft Word, and usually I'm pretty good
with
it, but this time it's just not working.

Many thanks for your time!

Regards

Simon
