Hi, Leslianne.  I suggested that you use the menu commands to set the
indent, instead of someone else's suggestion to use the ruler bar,
because I figured you would end up with what you've got now if you tried
to use the ruler bar.

Okay, let's fix this.  Double-click on the indented paragraph to select
it.  Look at the horizontal ruler about 1.5" or 2" down from the top of
your screen.  The top half of the ruler has a downward-pointing gray
triangle, and the bottom half of the ruler bar has an upward-pointing
gray triangle sitting on a gray square.
1.  Drag the top triangle back to the left margin.
2.  Drag the bottom triangle to the place where you want the hanging
indent to be.  Make sure your cursor is on the upward-pointing triangle
when you drag.  Don't drag the square (but the square will move with the
upward-pointing triangle).
3.  In the white space on the bottom half of the ruler bar (just below
the ruler marks), left click once where you want the first-line tab to
be.  The tab mark will appear as a black L on the ruler bar.  If you
don't get the tab exactly where you want it at first, it's okay, you can
drag the tab mark around just like the triangles.
4.  If you did what I'm thinking, the ruler bar should show the
downward-pointing triangle at the left margin, a black tab mark some
distance to the right of the left margin, and the
upward-pointing-triangle-sitting-on-square some distance to the right of
the tab mark.
5.  In your example text below, you would type the x's, then hit the tab
key, then start typing s's.

Does it look okay now?
