Please try not to use the List styles directly but use instead the
associated paragraph styles. In some cases, due to a problem with
lists in some of the developers' snapshots the best way to fix bullet
and numbered lists is to re-create them from scratch taking care of
copying then the original text in the new structure, taking care to
avoid the paragraph mark.

I had to deal with a couple hundred numbered items being wrong. To fix the problem, i wrote a macro that trolled the document, removed the numbering, and then used a dispatch to reapply it. Using the standard methods to apply it did not work. I considered this a bug in the OOo 3.0 developer versions.

I am not sure if my macro could be adapted to your issues, but if you have many instances to fix, drop me a line.

FWIW, several problems with list styles are reported fixed in m5 (=rc1), according to the release notes. If we still see problems while using rc1, it's bug-report time. (If you like, just complain here, and I'll try to write it up.) /tj
