Before turning a series of items into a bulleted or numbered list, what must you do?

Indent the items.

Remove the punctuation from each item.

Make sure each item is its own paragraph.

O Make sure there is a tab between each item.

O Make sure there is a tab between each item.

Explanation:

We need to make sure that there is a tab in between each item. If we place the tab properly, we can indent. We require first level indentation, we need to insert one tab, and more tabs depend upon the number of indentation level we want. For the second level indentation we need the two tabs, and so on. Nothing else is required certainly, and once we place the tabs correctly then we can apply the bullets and numbering to the tabbed list.
