Tab button is deleting selected text.
Whenever I select a paragraph and hit the tab button, instead of it moving
the paragraph, it deletes it. It does that with any text that is selected. How can I fix this?? Thanks |

If you hightlight a paragraph and hit tab, the para will be replaced with a tab. Or a space, period, whatever else you press. Don't highlight it, just put the cursor whre you want hte tab, and press tab. |

Which version of Word? In Word 2003, choose Tools - AutoCorrect Options -
AutoFormat as You Type tab, and click to enable "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces". (In Word 2007, it's in Office button - Word Options - Proofing - AutoCorrect - AutoFormat as You Type Tab). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP http://www.herbtyson.com Author of the Word 2007 Bible Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along.
