The reason for the problem is that different paragraph styles that
inevitably are attached to the two paragraph types and the frame will form
separately for each type. A table (which you exclude) may have been a better
option, alternatively you could use the rectangle tool from the drawing
toolbar and set it with no fill.

Hi

I have an issue regarding inserting bullet points and numbering
within a paragrah with a box border around it. Once i have completed
my document with bullets and numbers etc, i go to place a box border
around paragraphs but it creates seperate box borders for the
bulleted sections and indenting them. How do i overcome this so that
my paragrah is within one box border and the bulleted or numbered
bits are not seperated and indented? I dont want to use text boxes or
a table format. Using Word 2000 with Windows 2000.
