Default Problem with bullets in Word 2007

There is no paragraph break at the end of the line. I included a URL in my
original post that shows a screenshot with nonprinting characters turned on.
Thanks anyway.

Are you sure there is not a paragraph break at the end of each line? Display
nonprinting characters (Ctrl+*) to check.

I'm having a problem with bullets in Word 2007 that is driving me insane.
I
have two items in a list and I just want each one to be preceded by a
bullet.
However, Word insists on inserting a third bullet at the beginning of one
of
the lines, even though it is not a new paragraph; it's just the text that
ran
over from the previous line.

Here is a link to an image that shows what I'm talking about:
tinypic.com/view.php?pic=98c5yp&s=4. The problem is that there is a bullet
in
front of "Dig". But "Dig" is just another in a series of terms separated
by
commas. It's not a new paragraph, so it should appear without a bullet
like
the line above it ("to verify functionality...").

Thanks in advance for any help.
