Thanks Andrew. Most helpful! After spending 10 minutes figuring out how to pull up the "Immediate window" (🤦*♂️), I was able to figure out the ASCII code: 77.

Unfortunately, even with this modification (and deleting the space before and after the bullet - good tip!), my code still doesn't work. Here is the cleaned up code:

Sub TopiaFormat()

ActiveDocument.Select
Selection.ClearFormatting

Dim Para As Paragraph, Rng As Range
For Each Para In ActiveDocument.Range.Paragraphs
With Para.Range
If .Text Like "?" & vbTab & "*" Then
Set Rng = .Duplicate
With Rng
.End = .Start + 2
.Text = vbNullString
.InsertBefore Chr(77) & vbTab
End With
End If
End With
Next

With Selection.Find
.ClearFormatting
.Text = "Chr(77)"
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.Text = "[*] "
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll, Forward:=True, _
Wrap:=wdFindContinue
End With

Dim HLnk As Hyperlink
For Each HLnk In ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks
HLnk.Range.InsertAfter "]"
Next

For Each HLnk In ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks
HLnk.Range.InsertBefore "[>" & HLnk.Address & "|"
Next



Dim oField As Field
For Each oField In ActiveDocument.Fields
If oField.Type = wdFieldHyperlink Then
oField.Unlink
End If
Next
Set oField = Nothing

ActiveDocument.Select
Selection.ClearFormatting

End Sub
The bullets disappear (good!), but there is no replacement (bad!).

In the "Customize Bulleted list" pane, my bullets are set to Indent at 0.63 cm, with a text position indented at 1.34 cm. Could this have something to do with it?

Thanks again for your help.
