Yes, the left alignment is set and the indentation is set at 0.5 but after
editing, I hav found that it has changed by two or three spaces. I do press
enter but only at the end of a paragraph, using the word wrap feature. There
are no spaces at the beginning of the lines. I have tried resetting the
indentations by using the formatting toolbar but it still tends to pop back
to where "it" wants to be and I don't understand what I could have done
wrong. thanks for any help you can give

details. See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm and

Why does my paragraph indentation keep changing? I have checked and it is
set correctly but it keeps changing any way...a space or two either way.
Also....my auto correct periodically wants me to capitalize the first word
of
each line even though it is not a new sentence.

thanks
