Bullets and numbering not an option on format menu in Word

[asl]

Under the format menu in Word 2002, Windows XP, the bullets & numbering
option doesn't appear any more. How do I get it back?

Here's two ways:
Go to Tools | Customize | Options and there should be a button for Reset
toolbars and menus. this will eliminate any buttons you may have added,
though.

--or--

Tools | Customize | Commands.
In the left column, click on Format.
In the right column, scroll down until you see Bullets and Numbering (NOT
the choices that only have one of the two words).
Drag the Bullets and NUmbering button to the Format Menu.
When the menu opens, place where you want it.
This method will not change any buttons you may have added.

The first thing to check, though, is that you're displaying full menus. On
the Customize tab of Tools | Options, check the box for "Always show full
menus" (Word 2002 or 2003) or clear the check box for "Menus show recently
used items first" (Word 2000).
