Word has five built-in paragraph styles named List Bullet, List Bullet 2, List Bullet 3 etc. Why do I need to use more than one List Bullet style? After you've done this a couple of times it will take less time to set up your bullets than it will to read this article. It's actually not hard to do this, once you get the hang of it.
