The  proper  LaTeX ways to do it is to use a package which allows you to specify the spacing you want  There are several such package  and these two pages link to lists of them      TeX FAQ entry How to adjust list spacing http   dcwww camd dtu dk  schiotz comp LatexTips LatexTips html

The cleanest way for you to accomplish this is to use the enumitem package  https   ctan org pkg enumitem   For example      documentclass article   usepackage enumitem   http   ctan org pkg enumitem  begin document   noindent Here is some text and I want to make sure there is no spacing the different items    begin itemize  noitemsep     item Item 1    item Item 2    item Item 3  end itemize   noindent Here is some text and I want to make sure there is no spacing between this line and the item list below it   begin itemize  noitemsep topsep 0pt     item Item 1    item Item 2    item Item 3  end itemize   end document    Furthermore  if you want to use this setting globally across lists  you can use   usepackage enumitem   http   ctan org pkg enumitem  setlist itemize  noitemsep  topsep 0pt    However  note that this package does not work well with the beamer package which is used to make presentations in Latex

Use  vspace - topsep  before  begin itemize    Use  setlength  parskip  0pt   setlength  itemsep  0pt plus 1pt  after  begin itemize    And for the space after the list  use  vspace - topsep  after  end itemize     vspace - topsep   begin itemize     setlength  parskip  0pt     setlength  itemsep  0pt plus 1pt     item        item      end itemize   vspace - topsep

The way to fix this sort of problem is to redefine the relevant list environment  The enumitem package is my favourite way to do this sort of thing  it has many options and parameters that can be varied  either for all lists or for each list individually   Here s how to do  something like  what it is I think you want     usepackage enumitem   setlist nolistsep    or    usepackage enumitem   setlist nosep

I m very happy with the paralist package  Besides adding the option to eliminate the space it also adds other nice things like compact versions of the itemize  enumerate and describe environments
