2. On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click the arrow next to Bullets.

   

3. Click Define New Bullet, and then click Symbol or Picture.

4. Click any symbol or picture that you want to use, and then click OK twice.

After you create a bulleted item, each time you press ENTER, another bulleted item is automatically added until you press ENTER twice.
