reformat paragraphs
Use Find and Replace to replace ^t (a tab character) with nothing. Then
select the paragraphs and apply a style with a first-line indent such as Body Text First Indent. You can modify the indent to suit you (I find the default indent too small). Although it's preferable to use a style, you can also select the paragraphs and drag an indent on the ruler. -- Suzanne S.

reformat paragraphs
You could even replace ^t with format style Body Text First Indent which
would remove the tabs and apply the style to paragraphs with a tab. This is a blunt instrument so step through the document and make sure only leading tabs are removed. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Suzanne S.
