SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Word, if you use automatic bulleted lists or automatic numbered lists, the second or third item in the list may be left-aligned, even if the items above it are indented.

This problem occurs when you use the Help for WordPerfect users feature.



WORKAROUND
To allow Word to correctly use the Bullets and Numbering feature, turn off Help for WordPerfect users before you use the options on the AutoFormat As You Type tab. To turn off Help for WordPerfect users, follow these steps:
 * 1) On the Tools menu, click Options.
 * 2) On the General tab, click to clear the Help for WordPerfect users check box, and then click OK.

Automatic bulleted lists or automatic numbered Lists will now function properly.



MORE INFORMATION
To locate the Automatic bulleted lists or Automatic numbered lists check boxes, on the Tools menu, click AutoCorrect, and then click the AutoFormat As You Type tab.
