Add Bullets and Numbering

Numbered and bulleted lists are useful tools for presenting different types of information. Use bulleted lists for information that is related, but does not need to be presented in a particular order; use numbered lists for items that should be presented in a specific order.

To create a bulleted or numbered list:

  1. Select the block of text that you want to change into a list.

  2. Go to the Home Tab.


  3. See the Paragraph Group.


  4. Select the appropriate option for Bullets and Numbering.
