What shortcut is used to insert Bullets.

I don't know what word processing program you are using. But, if you are using Microsoft Word, maybe the following will be of help to you. It is from WordTips: Applying Bullets from the Keyboard It might be worth your while to also visit the site since there are some links within the article that pertain to the article.

Applying Bullets from the Keyboard

Word includes a handy-dandy tool on the toolbar that allows you to add bullets to a paragraph in a jiffy, and just as easily remove them. Unfortunately, there is no just-as-easy way to do the same thing using the keyboard.

If you are bound and determined to use the keyboard to apply (and remove) bullets, there are a couple of things you can look at. The first is to use styles and define keystrokes that apply your styles. There are numerous other benefits to using styles, but most of those have been covered in other WordTips.

Closely related to this approach are two built-in shortcuts provided by Word. If you press Ctrl+Shift+L, Word is supposed to automatically apply the predefined List Bullet style to your paragraph. Unfortunately, there are many reports of this not working reliably. (On some systems it won't apply the style, even though the shortcut is still "attached" to it.) To remove bullets, you could also use the Ctrl+Shift+N shortcut, which applies the Normal style.

While these may work for what you want done, they don't take the same approach to formatting as the Bullets tool on the toolbar. If you want to have that same functionality from the keyboard, you must customize your keyboard in the following manner:

1. Choose the Customize option from the Tools menu. Word displays the Customize dialog box.

2. Click on the Keyboard button. Word displays the Customize Keyboard dialog box.

3. In the Categories list, choose Formatting.

4. In the Commands list, choose FormatBulletDefault.

5. Click in the Press New Shortcut Key box.

6. Press the keystroke you want to use to apply bullets. Alt+B is a good choice, since it is not in use on a default Word system.

7. Click on Assign.

8. Click on Close to dismiss the Customize Keyboard dialog box.

9. Click on Close to close the Customize dialog box.

Now, whenever you press the keystroke you chose in step 6, it is the same as clicking on the Bullets tool. Press the keystroke again, and the bullets are gone. (Of course, you can also press Ctrl+Q to remove the bullets by returning to the default paragraph formatting.)
