I FINALLY got my hands on that dang document and FIXED it.  yippeee.=20

First, I tried just resetting the bullets.  That didn't work so I
re-typed the paragraph in question and THAT didn't work. I checked the
styles and they seem fine and work elsewhere. I even "reapplied" the
settings in the style to no avail.

I copied and removed the paragraph. Saved the document. Pasted the
bullet paragraph to a new document, saved and merged/printed
successfully.

Opened the original document and pasted the paragraph from the new
document back in and BINGO, SUCCESS.

Some things defy explanation.

Thanks all for help and suggestions. /g

Check your bullet styles...do you have something weird in there?  Have
you tried deleting the bulleted text that is messed up and recreating it
from scratch?=20

...I have to think you are using two different styles in your bullets,
if some of the bullets are fine and others are not....check which bullet
style is applied to the ones that are working and make sure that same
style is applied to the ones that are showing as numbers instead of
bullet...changing the style would be less work than retyping the whole
thing.
