Bullet and Indents

[Guest]

I would like to have no indent in the 1st paragraph so it is all left
aligned, and then have indented bullets to follow. However, when I adjust the
indents for the first paragraph it messes up the bulleted list below.

Example - This is what is happening:
Line 1 wrapped
so it lines up left
without bullets
- followed by a
bulleted list that
lines up indented
- and more bullets

This is what I would like:
Line 1 wrapped
so it lines up left
without bullets
- followed by a
bulleted list that
lines up indented
- and more bullets

Anita,
It can be done. Type in all of your paragraphs, use the promote button when
you type in the second and following paragraphs so you have two levels.
Remove the bullet from the first paragraph by clicking on the button of the
formatting toolbar.
In the ruler CTRL+drag the bottom two carats so that they are under the top
one.
Select your second level paragraphs, ctrl+drag the top carat so that it is
on top of the top one of the first level.
Ctrl+drag the bottom two carats of the second level to where you want the
text to indent.
Hope this helps.

Luc,
Thanks - it did work. It just needs some simple reformatting, but it looks
much better!
