Smart lists work sometimes (2007)
There is a block of text (10-12 lines) in a Word 2007 document. If I
type "* " on a blank line anywhere before or after those few lines, Word will convert it to a bulleted list. If I do the exact same thing anywhere with those lines, it just leaves it as an asterisk and a space. The block of text is nothing special. It's 10-12 1-line paragraphs all set to the normal style. What the heck could possibly be going on inside that block? |

Since they are being turned into bullet lists automatically do this. Add
another * (asterik) symbol to a line. Press enter so that it turns it into a bullet line then, when the AutoCorrect options box appears, click on it's arrow and scroll down to, stop automatically creating bullet lists. The problem should be solved after that. "Sesquipedalian Sam" wrote: There is a block of text (10-12 lines) in a Word 2007 document.
