Hi CBKenn. Welcome to the forums. 
The best way to do something like this is with the ordered list element. Here is a simple example:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style media="all">
ol {list-style-type: lower-alpha }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<ol>
<li><a href="">Info with web link</a></li>
<li><a href="">Info with web link</a></li>
<li>Just text info</li>
</ol>
</body>
</html>
However, you can't just cut and paste text from Notepad to do that. If you really want to do it that way (which is not really how to build a web page, but anyhow ...) you could just copy the text from Notepad, paste it into your web page, and wrap <pre> tags around it (which "preserve" the formatting):
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<pre>
a. (info with web link)
b. (info with web link)
c. Just text info
</pre>
</body>
</html>
That won't create active links, though, so you'd have to type in the <a> tags as I did in the first example.
Hope that helps.
