FP98: Nothing Happens When Clicking Bulleted List Button

ID: Q186828

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

When you click the Bulleted List button on the Formatting toolbar, nothing happens. In other words, you cannot remove the bullets from the selection.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if you selected the bulleted list by double-clicking in the left margin. When you select a bulleted list in this manner, FrontPage treats the selection as a block of text and does remove the bullets.

RESOLUTION

To remove the bullets from the list, select the bullleted list by following these steps:

1. Place the mouse pointer where you want to start selecting.

2. Press and hold down the mouse button and drag the pointer to where

   you want the selection to end.

3. Release the mouse button.

When you click the Bulleted List button on the Formatting toolbar, the bullets are removed.

NOTE: This method of selecting text does not create a block selection.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
