looks like a lot of text for 4 lines of garbage, most of which you don't need
i would create 2 rtf in word, just with different bullets then should be able to find what part represents the bullet character, my guess is it will be in the last 20 lines
i saved a rtf in word with different bullets, then opened in a richtextbox, open in notepad to see as above

i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case. Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next
dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part
come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
