If I've composed a list in Writer that is essentially a ToDo list where I
want items that are not yet done preceeded with an "open" bullet and items
that are done preceeded with a check mark is there a means to do it in
Writer using the bullets and numbering feature?

e.g.: (where "o" represents an open bullet and "\" represents a check mark)

o  configure router
\  set DHCP scope
o  install firewall

Note that each line would be separated from the next by a single carriage
return/line feed and the list would initially have all "o" bullets. As a
task is done the desire is to go back to the document and for that single
line change the bullet style.

OOo 2.3 on Windows XP SP2.

Alan:

Another solution is to use 'Styles and Formatting', selecting the 'List Styles'. Once you have your list with the open bullets, you can use this to change one bullet with out affecting the others. The default for 'List 3' is the check mark on my WinXP 002.3. Just select the line to change and double click on that style. It will change the open bullet to a check mark. Of course these styles are configurable.
