Indent formating
I am using Office Word 2003 and would like to press a button or two to
indent a Para. to full justification. In addition, how to disable it after use and how to precisely set the indent position. Thanks, Ray |

The best way to apply any kind of formatting is with styles, to which you
can assign keyboard shortcuts. Short of that, you can justify a paragraph using Ctrl+J. You can indent it using Ctrl+M (or apply a hanging indent with Ctrl+T). If you're wanting to indent left and right, modify the Block Text style to your requirements and assign a keyboard shortcut to it. Direct paragraph formatting can be removed using Ctrl+Q (direct font formatting with Ctrl+Spacebar). Or, if you have applied a style, you can reapply Normal style using Ctrl+Shift+N. -- Suzanne S.

Suzanne,
Many thanks for your useful formatting settings. Is there any way to configure the most common formatting settings as a default for every documents? Thanks, Ray "Suzanne S.
