This works in Firefox, Safari and Chrome & IE8. Technically, since column formatting only works for a section. I have two unordered list and I am trying to place them side by side. The line you’re seeing across the page is a paragraph border that Word has automatically inserted using AutoFormat. Lets learn how to insert bullet points side by side, in 2 columns in Word, without distorting the rest of the document. First, let’s find out how to solve the problem when it crops up. Simple quotation marks become “smart quotes” (the curly kind), two dashes together become a single long dash, etc.īut when Word guesses wrong (as in the “line across the page” example), it can really screw your document up. Microsoft Word, by default, attempts to autoformat certain character sequences into their rich text equivalent. What you’re experiencing is an autoformatted paragraph border. The Paragraph dialog box options are described in Adjust indents and spacing. Choose your settings, and then select OK. Go to Home and then select the Paragraph dialog box launcher. Infuriating, isn’t it? But I’m here to tell you: It’s both fixable and preventable. Select one or more paragraphs that you want to adjust. Have you ever typed a few dashes in between paragraphs (as a placeholder or whatever), hit enter, and somehow wound up with a line all the way across the page that you can’t get rid of, no matter how many times you hit the Delete key?
