Need help with Office Word 2007 and bullets

[Overkill]

I have created a document in Word 2007 and it has several bullets that are numbered.

Example.
1.1 text here text here text here
1.2 text here text here text here
1.3 text here text here text here
1.4 text here text here text here
...
1.10 text here text here text here
1.11 text here text here text here
1.12 text here text here text here
1.12.1 text here text here text here

Notice that once you hit double digits it starts adding much more space between the bullet and the text. Is there a way to change or minimize the space between the bullet and text after your bullet gets longer?

Thank you so much in advance.

okay.. it wont show the spacing on the posted version, but I will try to explain this in words. After the digits his 1.10, it is almost as if there is a tab of space between the bullet and the text. When you do a sub bullet say... 1.10.1.1 it seems like there is two tabs of space between the bullet and the text. I am looking for a solution that will eliminate the space between the bullet and text.
