Using
Multilevel Lists in Microsoft Word
In
Microsoft Word, a multilevel list contains two or more levels of bullets
or numbers within a single list. A multilevel list could contain numbers,
letters or bullets at each level. This feature will allow you to create
up to nine levels in a single list. Multilevel lists are useful in creating
meeting minutes or agency policy and procedures.
To
create a multilevel list in MS Word:
- Go to
the Format menu and select
Bullets and Numbering.
- Click
on the Outline Numbering tab. Select the style of list you want and
click on OK.
- Press
Enter after you type each paragraph. Each new item in the list will
stay at that current level until it is demoted or promoted. Press
Tab to demote a level and Shift + Tab to
promote one level.
- After
typing the last item, press Enter twice to turn the feature off.
- To customize
a multilevel list, select one of the styles Word provides and click
on the Customize button. This will allow you to customize the list
with the letters, numbers or bullets you want.
