I have a numbered list in Word 2013 that I pasted into Notepad, but when doing so, the space between the numbers and the list became too much. I tried figuring out how to decrease the space in Notepad, but didn't have much luck.

So, I thought I would enter the list 'unnumbered' into Excel, then renumber it in Excel, then copy and paste it into Notepad. It might just do the same thing that Word did, and create too much space between, but I thought I would try.

Even if it didn't work I would still like to know how I could create numbers for the list with a decimal point after each number; as in 1.--2.--3. and so on.

I never use Excel, but am thinking of taking a short Udemy course to just get the basics.



I am using Word and Excel 2013.
