Converting Bullets & Numbers to Normal Fonts/Text

[Faraz A. Qureshi]

I don't understand why the following question didn't appear in my former
posting. Kindly excuse me if the page had not been updated timely:

Any idea/code how to have such styles be converted to normal fonts.
Sometimes I need to change the documents' layout for instance having the
point-wise documents be converted to a single paragraph so as to save the
space but still requiring the bullets & numbering to remain present.

Thanx in advance.

To convert auto numbering to plain text:
Press Alt+F11 to open the VBA Editor and Ctrl+G to get to the Immediate
window. In that window, type
ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText
and press Enter.

If the numbering is defined as part of the paragraph style, you will need to
modify the style in your pasted material so that the numbering doesn't
return if the paragraph formatting is reset (by Ctrl+Q).
