Creating Bullets In Microsoft Word

Hi my lovely viewers

If you are new to this blog, I have been talking about the product that Microsoft have had out for many years now, that product is Microsoft Office. There are many features of use for this software program and there are actually many different programs in the Office suite, such as Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint etc.

Anyway, as I understand a few of you are very new to this I would like to let you all know about bullet points in Microsoft Word (one of those programs included in the Office suite).

If you want to get some data across on your document and don't think its a good idea to be in a sentence, there is a little button on the Microsoft Word toolbar that will automatically list the text in a bullet or numbered format. Its not just Microsoft Word that allows you to do this sort of formatting, but even the software that powers this blog allows you to do this also. Here is an example of what I mean with bullets.

Bullet List
  • Microsoft Outlook
  • Microsoft Excel
  • Microsoft PowerPoint
  • Microsoft Word
  • Microsoft Front Page
Numbered List
  1. Microsoft Outlook
  2. Microsoft Excel
  3. Microsoft PowerPoint
  4. Microsoft Word
  5. Microsoft Front Page
Its really easy to do and a fast way of creating lists like the above, you should start to use it in your document creation as it also makes the document more visually engaging to the reader.

I hope you enjoyed this tip, I will be taking a break soon but I hope to have a lot more information on Microsoft Office in the coming months.

Stay tuned and have a great weekend!

Jill
