Pasting text - Bullets no longer showing up

I copy text from Word into Dreamweaver to format.  Up until recently, when I would copy and paste lists the bullet points or numbers from the lists would show up when pasted.  Within the last week, the bullet points and numbers from the list have not been pasting into Dreamweaver. Dreamweaver is up-to-date.  I have restarted my computer, but that did not help. 

I am using a Windows computer. and have version 21.3

Switch to DESIGN View (Ctrl + Shift + F11).

Go to Edit > Paste Special > Text with Structure (paragraphs, lists, etc...)

 

If you're still having trouble, validate code & fix reported errors.

Window > Results > Validation.... check document.

 

Hope that helps.

Hi Nancy, thanks for sharing.  While this works, it creates other issues because I usually copy and past last amounts of text from Word into Dreamweaver.

 

I don't think my inital provided as many details as it oculd have. I used to copy and paste text from Word into the Code window in Dreamweaver. When I would paste it, the actual bullets (-) or numneration ( a), b), etc.) would appear, not <ul>, <ol> <li>, <li>.  Recently, probably within the last two or three weeks, when I paste the content from word into the code window, the bullets and numeration do not get pasted.

Did you validate code and fix reported errors?
