Default Adding multiple periods automatically

Thanks ! Never thought to look into the tabs options for that

Additionally Is there a way to 'SET' this formatting option so that the tab
leaders (...) are expanded to 2 pts apart (. . .) without changing each line
in the format/font/character spacing ?

Your help is much appreciated !

Is there a way to fill the space as in the example below (ie. between "Daily
Use" and "G.2.1, H.7.3") with periods so that the column end margin at
"H.7.3" will line up properly with the text at the same column end margin in
the second line ","ect. Note the continuation of the second line is by way of
a hanging indent.

Daily use . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .G.2.1, H.7.3
Selection . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.1.1.3,
2.1.1.7 to 2.1.1.9

Thanks in advance for any suggestions !


Use tabs with a dotted leader. Format - Tabs
