Angry InDesign bullets; how to adjust them?!?!

How do you adjust a bullet, beyond font and point size? Every time I try a bullet -several different characters + several different type faces- they are in horrrrible vertical alignment. Can't we adjust the base-line or something for bullets? ((What's the point if we can't adjust them, that's what we do!))

Please tell me I'm missing something or how to make such a simple but necessary adjustment! Please! Using InDesign CS2 4.0.2.633. Thanks!

my bud says that you have to use the tab to give the bullets there place on the page don't use the spacebar - just tab into the spot you want and when you get to the next line tab again to place it where you want..just don't use the spacebar........hope that helps.

Um, you could use the baseline shift feature to adjust them. It's in the Control Bar about half-way over. It's two "A" s with an arrow. You can also adjust the default amount in the preferences.
