Default Copying just bulleted text, not bullet

Hello everyone,

I have a word document that has a number of bulleted items, some several layers deep. When I highlight a word and copy it to another application, the word, as well as the bullet itself is carried over. Is there an easy way within word to copy just the word, not the actual bullet. I tried copying everything to a .txt file but lost the layer depth on the bullets which made it hard to read. Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks...

the easiest and probably most straight forward way i can think is, copy and paste the bullets with the text into another application, when it is copied into other application, highlight it all and then click on the bullet icon on the toolbar to remove bullets (i presume it is a microsoft application)
