Select the Paragraph Mark at the End of the afflicted paragraphs and press
Ctrl+Space
The bullet / number takes it styling directly from its terminating paragraph
mark.

Subject: Problem with Word 97 list items
Good afternoon,
I'm working on a document which includes several important and specific
pre-operative patient list item instructions for a medical procedure.
Whenever I bold, underline, or use italics on a portion of the text, the
numbered or lettered "bullet" becomes the SAME. I've tried everthing
including:
1. Deleting the bullet, then manually entering it.
2. Backspacing to the prior text and entering the bullet line again.
3. Deleting the entire line, then manually entering again.
4. Having a minor temper tantrum then trying again.
5. Wanting to put a "bullet" through my computer and forget the whole thing.
I continually check the paragraphs and fonts as I go but nothing seems to
work. I need to complete this project tomorrow. Any suggestions?
IPCC 01, the IEEE International Professional Communication Conference,
October 24-27, 2001 at historic La Fonda in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA.
CALL FOR PAPERS OPEN UNTIL MARCH 15. http://ieeepcs.org/2001/
