Indent problem
When setting up a document that needs to have the first paragraph set at one
indentation and different indentations for the next few paragraphs and then repeat the process, how is the best way to set this up without using a template. The user I am trying to help does not want to use a template. The document looks a little like this: Section 1 blah blah blah blah blah blah Section 2 blah blah blah blah blah blah These sections must also remain on the same page. THANKS IN ADVANCE |

Indent problem
Hi ?B?QkFN?=,
You could define two styles, one for each indent. Set the indented style as the "Style for following paragraph" for both styles. Then the user will only have to select the not-indented style as they work. In order to keep things on the same page, you need to activate the "Keep with Next" and "Keep lines together" options for the paragraph format. From your problem description, though, it's not clear whether ALL the sections need to be on the same page, or whether each section needs to be on the same page with its "indented list", but a new section may break to the next page. If the latter is the case, then you'll need a third style, for the "last paragraph within a section" that does NOT have "Keep with next" active. This style could then have the "Section" style set for the following paragraph, so it wouldn't be any more work for the user (as long as they don't try to add more entries at the end of the list). When setting up a document that needs to have the first paragraph set at one indentation and different indentations for the next few paragraphs and then repeat the process, how is the best way to set this up without using a template. The user I am trying to help does not want to use a template. The document looks a little like this: Section 1 blah blah blah blah blah blah Section 2 blah blah blah blah blah blah These sections must also remain on the same page.
