Hi all,

Some time ago I posted a question about lists in Writer documents, and I
am still having problems. I thought I'd simplify the question and
re-post now.

How can I get the actual text string of a numbered list item? Calling
getString() on a TextCursor or Paragraph returns the numbering character
as well, so e.g.

foobar        <--- Paragraph.getString() returns "foobar"
- foobar      <--- Paragraph.getString() returns "foobar"
1. foobar     <--- Paragraph.getString() returns "1.foobar"

Because the numbering character and delimiter can be more or less
anything (if user-defined), it's impossible to universally strip them
off (especially as the delimiter can be omitted).

Is there any way of getting just the string? Any help will be greatly
appreciated, as I really need this and I've been going in circles with
the issue.

Cheers,

Zbigniew Banach
