Default

If the asterisks are at the start of the paragraphs, then the simplest way is to use AutoFormat to apply bulleted lists (uncheck all the other options).

You will need to add autofomat to the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar) from the All Commands selection as it is not on the ribbon.

Otherwise use the replace function to replace * with the bullet character of your choice.
