MS-Word help. numbered lists
Subject: MS-Word help. numbered lists

Wasn't sure which board to post this on. Will try here. I've just reinstalled MS-Word. Previously, I had it set up to create numbered lists as soon as I typed a number, two spaces, and began typing text. After that, every time I hit ENTER, the list would continue numbering. I've gone to the bullets and numbering menu, and I can get the automatic numbered lists turned on. My problem is that every list is indented, but I want the lists to be flush with the margin. I can right click on the list and select "decrease indent", and that moves everything over, but I'd like to get rid of that step. Previously I had it set up to do all of that automatically. I just can't remember how to set that up now.

I hope I described this problem clearly. If you can help me, I'd really appreciate it!

"ileal conduit (not ileoconduit or ileo conduit)..." and goes on to describe the ileal conduit with regard to the segment of ileum used as a urinary reservoir in patients who have had cystectomy.

Inclusive versus exclusive lists
Subject: Inclusive versus exclusive lists

I want to make sure I am correct in how I am transcribing this one doc I have.  He is always saying "He denies cough, congestion, exertional pain, fever, chills OR sweats, weight loss OR hemoptysis."  I've been using "and" between these symptoms as the patient is denying all of them.  "He denies fever, cough AND congestion."  As opposed to "He has no cough, fever, OR chills.  Is this correct?  This is driving me crazy.  Thanks very much.
