If you’re lucky, this will highlight all the bullet points in the document, allowing you to change the bullet character.

to make a document created in WordPerfect, then edited in WORD 95, then opened in WORD 2003

to play nicely with bulleted lists?

The document I am receiving and opening with WORD 2003 turns the bullets into $ symbols. Since the formatting still thinks its a list, I cannot do a find and replace.
