below is, what works for word 2008. it does not, however for entourage... or does it? if so, what do i do wrong? reply in german also welcome by newbiemac

I can't add a line to a list without bullets or numbers appearing.
Show All

Cause: Each line in the list ends with a paragraph mark.
Solution: End the previous line in the list with SHIFT+RETURN and then add a new line.

When you format a list to have bullets and numbering, Word adds bullets or numbers to each paragraph. When you press RETURN at the end of a line, the next line becomes a new paragraph.
Solution: Replace the paragraph markThe nonprinting symbol (Paragraph mark) that Word inserts when you press RETURN at the end of a paragraph. The paragraph mark stores the formatting that you apply to a paragraph. at the end of each line - before the lines you want to appear without a bullet or number - with SHIFT+RETURN.

Hi,

Entourage does not support soft line breaks, which is why this does not
work. However, if Entourage is defined as your default email client, you can
compose your message in Word (including the type of formatting you would
like to have) and then click on File>Send to>Mail Recipient (as HTML). This
command passes your message on to Entourage while preserving the complex
formatting, and all you need to do is enter a recipient, a subject line and
then send the message.

hi michel or whoever works on this:

thank you for your prompt reply.

tried this immediately but am sorry to have to inform you: this does not work fully as expected.

applying numbers works on the paragraphs as long as you stay in the word-document, but as soon as you hand the document over to entourage
.....File>Send to>Mail Recipient (as HTML).....
the numbers are lost.

how do i keep the numbers also in entourage?

Hi,

you're right, this feature does not work as expected. I'll see if I can find
a workaround; if I can't, I'll inform Microsoft of this issue. Please note
