I'm setting up a document with bullets but the first bullet is coming up with a red box around it. I've checked the other formatting but cannot seem to figure out why this is happening. Can anyone shed some light? the other items on the list have a plain circular black bullet - I'm confused.

Thank you kindly

Got your example and I can see the problem and know how to get rid of it but how it got there I don't know.

Set your Highlight Tool to none then Select the paragraph adjacent to the bullet and use the highlight tool to remove any highlights.

Next you need to reset you basic document template.

With Word closed do a System Search for

Normal.dot

Delete all occurences of the file that you find.

Next time you open Word it will rebuild the basic document template.

Then try another document with bullets and see how it goes.

Thank you very much - I have no idea how it got there either. The document was manually formatted and I removed the formatting to be able to do formatting from the menus. It just popped up.. weird

Keep well
