Bullet indentations unexpected change
Greetings,
I have a document using number bullets. The indentations are 1/4 inch. Suddenly, I have a bullet with a 1/2 inch indentation!? I can't get it to behave. I do have some tabbing above the problem. How can I fix? 1. abc 2. cde x [tab] y 3. fgh Windows 7 Office 2010 Thanks, Rich |

Sorry.
Bullets need to be tied to Styles to work properly if they are in a document that is heavily edited. See How to control bullets in Word 2007 and Word 2010. |

To reliably change the indentation of a numbered or bulleted list you have to use the Adjust List Indents command. Click a number/bullet symbol; Word selects all the items in the list (or all the items on that same level if this is a multilevel list). Right-click and choose Adjust List Indents from the context menu.
An even safer approach is to define a paragraph style, as Charles suggests.
