Using tab button does not move numering to next lower level

[Guest]

The tab button fails to move the paragraph numbering to next lower level once
using OUTLINE NUMEBERED method

Hi

In earlier versions of Word, Tools | Options | Edit. Tick "Tabs and
backspace set left indent".



In Word 2002 and 2003, Tools | Autocorrect Options | AutoFormat as you Type.
Tick "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces". If you've never
visited this dialog box before, avoid the temptation to tick anything that
isn't already ticked.


Hope this helps.

MS Chaudhary,
Don't know which version of Word you are using but if it is Word 2003 go to
Tools - AutoCorrect options - tab AutoFormat as you type - at the bottom of
the dialogue see if there is a check next to Left and first indent... if not
check it and see if it helps.
