Problem in outline format
In outline format, hitting tab to go to the next level only puts a tab in,
but does not take me to the next level. Hitting shift tab should also take me back one level, but that also just puts a tab in place. Please help |

Try Tools--Options, Edit tab. Make sure "tabs and backspace set left
indent" is checked. ************ Hope it helps! Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com "Kim" wrote in message ...

Problem in outline format
When I go to Tools-options-edit, there is no "tabs and backspace set left
indent". Would it be somewhere else? Thanks, Kim "Anne Troy" wrote: Try Tools--Options, Edit tab. Make sure "tabs and backspace set left indent" is checked. ************ Hope it helps!

Problem in outline format
In Word 97 and 2000, click on Tools | Options | Edit | check the
"Tabs and backspace set left indent" box | OK. In Word 2002 and 2003, click on Tools | AutoCorrect Options | AutoFormat As You Type | check the "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces" box | OK.

Thanks, GnO. Didn't check if newer versions were different.

Hi Lindsay,
Word 2004 means you are on a Mac--that option is under Word | Preferences | Edit. It's good for Mac users to ask on Mac groups--see here for Google/Entourage gateway to newsgroups for MacWord, MacExcel, and other MS programs for the Mac: http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups Lindsay Werb wrote: Hey, I am having the same problem but I have Word 2004- any advice on how to fix it?
