SYMPTOMS
When you delete or change a numbered or bulleted list when Track Changes is on, you may receive unexpected results.

Case 1
If you delete a numbered list item with Track Changes on, the revised text is struck through and appears with the number followed immediately by the text without any indentation.

Case 2
If you delete a bulleted list item with Track Changes on, the revised text is struck-through and appears with a square (instead of the bullet) followed immediately by the text without the indentation.

Case 3
If you change a number or bullet format to a Wingding bullet format with Track Changes on, the revised text is struck-through and appears with one or two random struck-through Wingding characters preceding your actual bullet.

NOTE: This behavior is different from earlier versions of Word.



WORKAROUND
If you undo the change or if you accept or reject the change, Word corrects

the problem and shows the text with the bullet or number properly.



STATUS
This behavior is by design of Microsoft Word.
