I would advise against modifying Normal style because most other styles
are based on it and will be affected (see

find and use the built-in Body Text First Indent style, which has a
default first-line indent of 0.15". This can be modified to 0.13". The
built-in style also has 6 points Spacing After, but this can be removed
if desired. See also

Thank you. I created it as a new style, and - because I am not yet
comfortable uising styles - I created a macro which creates that indent
on paragraphs I select. I then put the macro shortcut on the Word
toolbar for easy access. Seems simplest way for me.
I will also study your styles link.
Thank you Suzanne. You are great - as usual.
