WORD: Stop Auto-Formatting Bullets

Sometimes WORD gets a little overzealous and starts automatically formatting your bullets and it seems the more you try to fix them, the deeper you get into the hole.  Try this to fix that auto-formatting problem:

• Tools
• AutoCorect
• AutoFormat as you Type
• Un-check both "Automated Bulleted Lists: and "Automated Numbered Lists"
• Then click the AutoFormat tab and un-check the "Automatic Bulleted Lists"

Phew.
