Default How to change the characteristics of the Increase Indent button on the Formatting toolbar

The word 'default' would have removed the ambiguity. We'll see if we can get
that changed.

Doug - Thank you for the feedback.

You clarified the problem. The Increase Indent is set in the "Default tab
stop" in the FormatTabs dialog. This is the only place it can be set
since the Tab dialog of the modify Style dialog does not have a "Default
tab stop" setting. Moreover, the "Default tab stop" is a global setting
which applies to all styles.

The Microsoft help for "indent paragraphs" does not specify that it is the
"Default tab stop" in the FormatTabs dialog which you must set. It says
"If you want to change the position of the [increase] indent, you can
first set a different tab stop."

Thank you for your help.
