MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / May 2006Tab indentation no longer works
I have outline styles set up in my normal template so that I Indent as follows: 1. ADFSDF a. ASDFSDF i) ASDFASDFSD The styles work fine and I can switch from one level to another by clicking on the INCREASE INDENT or DECREASE iNDENT buttons in my tool bar or changing the style from Outline Level 1 to Outline Level 2, etc. I used to be able to switch indent levels by hitting the TAB key to indent or SHIFT TAB key to decrease indent but this no longer works. I have searched in the TOOLS, OPTIONS but can't find any setting which applies. I have even tried to use an older version of Normal.dot, but that didn't work either. Does anybody know how to get this capability back?  SignatureThank you. Tom Please always specify the version of Word you are using. In this case it makes a difference. Word 2000 or earlier: On the Edit tab of Tools | Options, check the box for "Tabs and backspace set left indent." Word 2002 or 2003: On the AutoFormat As You Type tab of Tools | AutoCorrect Options, check the box for "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces." SignatureSuzanne S.
