Bullets and numbering

How to apply bullets and numbering into you word 2007 document

 
Bullets are characters used to separate listed items in a document. Bullets separates one listed item from one another by giving emphasis each point on the list. Numbers also are used to separate listed items only that with numbers the listed items are in sequence like a,b,c: 1,2,3 etc.

Now that we understand what Bullets and Numbering are we continue to see how we can use bullets and numbering to arrange list items in our Microsoft office  word 2007.

In Microsoft office 2007 we have 3 types of listing that we can use in our document, that is, Bulleted listing, Numbered listing, and Multilevel listing.

To get started highlight the points you want numbered or bulleted. To highlight is to select, see the example below. The highlighted or selected text appear like the one below. To start highlighting a text left click, hold and drag the mouse over the text you want highlighted. see how to select text and objects in office 2007
