There is no way to set a "five-space" indent, as Word does not use "spaces"
as a unit of measurement. You can set a half-inch first-line indent (or left
indent, as required) by dragging the appropriate marker on the horizontal
ruler or in the Format Paragraph dialog. Half an inch is the equivalent of
five spaces in 12-point (10-pitch) Courier New.
