Default "tabs" in outline numbered bullets & numberings

Whenever I created outlines in word from the bullets & numberings, the "tab"
key would move the outline number/letter to the next level (e.g., from I. to
A.). Now, when I use "tab", instead of changing the level of the outline, a
tab space is created. I am not sure what I did to change the setting. How do
I change it back?

Thank you

Word 2000 and earlier: Check the box for "Tabs and backspace set left
indent" on the Edit tab of Tools | Options.

Word 2002 and 2003: Check the box for "Set left- and first-indent with tabs
and backspaces" on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of Tools | AutoCorrect
Options.
