Default tab to a new level in outline format does not work

The shortcut keys of tab and shift-tab does not work when I do an outline
format. I have the options set up correctly, however, upon pressing 'enter'
after the first line of the outline, it goes to the next number. When I press
tab, it does not go to the next level (A) but just a plain tab space. also,
when I push shift-tab, it does a regular tab, as well, instead of going
backwards.

I've had our IT department look at it but it wasn't solved.

Tools AutoCorrect (or AutoCorrect Options) AutoFormat as you type (tab)
Check the option for "set left- and first-indent with tab key.
