Sharon, RoboHelp 3.0 is a pain when it comes to bullets and numbered
lists. I do not have specific experience with table.
The bullets/lists and hanging indent problem is a known problem. Do check
the RoboHelp site for help.
A solution which has worked for me for just the lists is to make it into a
style. Call the style, say TABLE. It works 90%.
This is an obvious solution but please upgrade to RoboHelp 4.0. Most such
problems simply vanish.
I know I have not been of much help. But I feel it helps to know that
there are shortcomings in any program. (RoboHelp passes the buck to the
winhelp compiler!)
