Have been reading the Shauna Kelly words on this. I would like to have
bulleted list set out with 1.5 line spacing between bullets, but each
individual bullet, if it has more than one line, to wraparound singkle
spaced. I also need to be able to add or delete bullet points and space them
at will without having to have global spcing modified throughout the list.
Can't see how to do it. If I try to space out the points, then the cases
where there's warapround over one or more points also space out. I'm feeling
spaced out! Also can't see how to undo the bulleting in bulleted lists.

If you format the style as single-spaced with, say, 6 pts Spacing After,
wouldn't that accomplish what you want?

You apply an unbulleted style. The only really satisfactory way to deal with
any kind of formatting--including bulleted/numbered paragraphs--is using
styles. Word supplies styles for this purpose: a series of five graduated
List Bullet styles (you can add more, up to nine to fill out the series),
five List Number, five simple List (just a hanging indent--you supply the
number or bullet), and five List Continue (indented styles to match the
hanging indent on the corresponding List, List Bullet, or List Number
style). Link the styles to your numbering. For an unindented style, use Body
Text. Don't apply bullets or numbering as direct formatting to any other
style.

Presumably short cut is shift-ctrl-N? At least that works for me! Suzanne,
I can't tell you how this has improved my productivity. I've used 2000 since
2000 (!) and struggled with those bullets using the menu bar. I'll
experiment further with space before as well.

Ctrl+Shift+N applies Normal style. I prefer to avoid Normal style
ordinarily; see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...BodyStyles.htm
