I'm using SDL Trados 7.1.0.719, build 719, with Word 2002. Help, anyone? ▲ Collapse

it seems I was too hasty - looks like they were not properly formatted as bullets, so removing the symbols that looked like bullets, highlighting the list and making it into a proper bulleted list seems to have worked.
