Word - visually move items in a list using arrow keys to change l.

[jhines]

I would like to be able to reorder a bullet or number list simply by dragging
a list item or pressing an up/down arrow key. Often I create lists in rough
draft mode - while brainstorming. Later, I would like an easy way to reorder
the list for presentation. As it is now I have to cut/paste. Seems a rather
inefficient way to do things.

Select and drag ?

Or try "OutlineMoveDown" and "OutlineMoveUp", either from the buttons in Outline
View, or using the shortcuts Alt+Shift+Down and Alt+Shift+Up -- which work in
any view, and with any number of paragraphs selected.
They even work if the paragraph(s) were only partly selected, or if the Cursor
was an insertion point.
And those same commands work for movint table rows, too.

Not 100% sure, but I think the commands have unfortunately become somewhat buggy
in Word2003, if you have tables in the document.
