Bullet corruption in Word

["Beth Kane" <kanerb -at- concentric -dot- net>]

'Morning,

I'm on deadline (I have about an hour left to finish formatting this doc,
which came with a messy template) and suddenly, the bullets in my Word 2000
file have turned into question marks. First I thought only the style was
corrupted, but even using the standard bullet toolbar button produces only
question marks.

I have tried:

- examining the style to see if I could specify a font for the bullet -- I
didn't see how to do that; strangely, the bullet style itself doesn't seem
to be mentioned in the style format, although it says "bullet"

- checking Word online Help -- it hinted that the Symbol font might be
corrupted

- looking on the Web for a Symbol font to download, could not find

- running the Office 2000 repair utility

- uninstalling and reinstalling Office 2000

- searching the MS Web site for solutions, found nothing even close so far

Has anyone seen and/or solved this problem??? Can you lead me in the right
direction? Thank you very much!
