Default Word 2007 Indented paragraph doesn't indent first line on next

He means that the paragraph has a positive left indent. Every line is
indented (or should be). The article at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...lyIndented.htm addresses the
opposite problem, but I'm at a loss to come up with an explanation for this
situation.

What do you mean by "fully indented"? Are you not talking about the
first line at all?

Thank you for responding. It is actually a full paragraph indentation
which
should have no oddities. Here are no paragraph breaks or manual page
breaks.
If I could attach an image I could show you the pages with all relevant
formatting marks shown. In one case I stumbled around with Styles and got
rid
of it but can't seem to reproduce this.

It also happens with a paragraph that is fully indented that starts at the
top of a page --the first line looks like a hanging indent even though the
paragraph formatting indicates no special indents.

I assume you are referring to a hanging indent? Are you sure there is
not a
paragraph break? Or have you inserted a manual page break? If so, that
includes a paragraph break.

A paragraph that is set to be indented and that flows over to the next
page
does not have the first line on the next page indented. This line,
usually
just a continuation of a sentence on the previous page where the
paragraph
starts, has moved to the left margin. The next line of the
paragraph -whether
or not part of the same sentence- are indented again-
