Line breaks in bulleted list
I have created a custom multilevel list in Word 2007, but whenever I make a
line break by hitting enter, the formatting goes back to "Normal" and I lose my bullets. Usually when I am using bulleted lists, pressing enter brings me to the same bullet level I was at previously. How do I correct this? |

In addition to what Doug has said, note that even if the multilevel list was
NOT created with paragraph styles, the behavior when you press Enter (at the end of a paragraph) is determined by the "Style for following paragraph" setting for the paragraph style applied to text. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...
