Removing a Bulleted or Numbered List

Summary: If you want to convert bulleted or numbered lists back to regular text (so they appear just like the rest of your document), you can do so using the same tools you use to create the lists. This tip shows just how easy this conversion process is.

There may be times when you want to remove the list formatting you previously applied to some of your text. For instance, you may have a numbered list that you want to reformat as regular text. Word provides an easy way for you to remove list formatting:

  1. Select the list items you want to no longer be a part of the list. It doesn't matter if it is a numbered or bulleted list.
  2. If the list is a numbered list, click on the Numbering tool located on the Home tab of the Ribbon, in the Paragraph group.
  3. If the list is a bulleted list, click on the Bullets tool located on the Home tab of the Ribbon, in the Paragraph group.

If you remove the bullets or numbering from only a portion of the list, the remainder of the list maintains the list formatting. If required, Word adjusts the numbering on any remaining part of a numbered list.
