Subject:Re: bullet lists in Excel From:"Comeau, Lisa" <Lisa -dot- Comeau -at- MOH -dot- GOV -dot- ON -dot- CA> Date:Fri, 5 Mar 1999 16:48:21 -0500
Terry Freedman suggested using the Autocorrect feature in conjunction with
symbols to put bullets in an Excel spreadsheet.
This is a good idea, but you might want to keep in mind that you can only
use this as long as you haven't placed anything else in the clipboard since
the symbol.
As CTRL+V is the shortcut key for paste, it will paste the most recent item
placed in the clipboard. If you reopen the file at a later date, and you've
cut or copied text, the text will now be what's placed where you want the
bullet to be.
