Default Combining multiple bulleted lists

I'm working on a document created by someone else. It has dozens of individual bullet lists made up of two or three bullets. How can I combine all of the bullets so that they are controllable as a whole? (So that when I highlight the bullets all of them highlight instead of just the two or three in the same list.)

Unless you do something like putting the bullets into a table cell, you really can only select them by hightlighting the entire range. In a table cell, though, triple-clicking on the cell's end-of-cell marker selects the whole cell.

The best way to deal with bullets (or numbering) is to set them up as styles. See http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/bull...s20072010.html. (I'm assuming here that MacWord 2011 is similar.)
