Those pesky Bullet Points:
One of the biggest sources of frustration is Numbering and Bullets in Word. Here's a key: Always think of Word Horizontally instead of vertically. Word IS NOT Excel! Say that over in your head three times... Word IS NOT Excel! Word IS NOT Excel! Word IS NOT Excel! There, now don't you feel better by gum! Too many people try and make Word act like Excel and do things vertically but it is a word processor program.
Remember this: When it comes to Bullets, the Enter, Tab, Shift and Backspace key are your friends.
Begin by typing one word for your list or sentence, then apply the Bullets by pressing the Bullet Key. Then place your cursor at the end of the word or line and press the Enter Key. Automatically the next line will begin with the same bullet. You are now on the same level, to move in one level, press the Tab Key. When you hit your Enter Key again, you are still on the same level. Think Horizontally. You are not technically doing anything vertically. When you desire to go in another level, Tab.
Okay, you say, "that's fine, but how the heck do I get back out again?"
Simple, Shift Tab. Tab got you in, Shift Tab will bring you back out.
