Tabs and Indents
How do I format a paragraph with some text that is "tabbed/indented" and some
that is not? The first few lines of the paragraph should be indented, but the remaining lines are to align at the left margin. -- Faye |

Tabs and Indents
You can have a first-line indent or a hanging indent; anything beyond that
will require (a) more than one paragraph or (b) line breaks and tabs. -- Suzanne S.

Tabs and Indents
When I enter the line breaks and try to insert a tab in the next line, all of
the text automatically shifts to the right -- which is not what I'm looking for. In previous versions of Word, I was able to highlight only the portion of a paragraph that I wanted to reformat. It looks like it is no longer possible to do that. . . unless I'm missing something. I'm using Word 2007. -- Faye "djprius" wrote: Faye wrote: Thanks! How do I insert the line breaks?

Tabs and Indents
You need to disable the "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and
backspaces" option. I'm not sure exactly where this is found in Word 2007; in Word 2003 it's on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of Tools | AutoCorrect Options. -- Suzanne S.
