How do I find and replace a bullet in a word document?


Hi Delores,

Copy it to the clipboard (select it, Ctrl+C), and paste it into "Find what" (Ctrl+V).

If it's a bullet from an auto-bulleted paragraph, you can't select the bullet.
It's very much recommended to use a style for such bulleted paragraphs. In that case, search for the style (leaving "Find what" empty, More > Format > Style).

Greetings,
Klaus

To change the bullet, modify the style.

With manually bulleted paragraphs (using the "bullet" button on the formatting toolbar), you don't have much choice but change them manually, or write a macro for the task if you know some VBA.
If you need to do that anyway, you might as well apply a bullet style.
