When I open a new document in Word there is a hanging indent and my right and
left tabs are only a few characters apart. How do I change this?

If, in a newly created document, pressing Ctrl+Q fixes the problem,
just open the Normal template as a document and Ctrl+Q there too. Save
and close the template.

If Ctrl+Q does not fix the problem, you have to modify the style
applied at the insertion point, to have the settings you want. Again,
perform this modification in normal.dot, save and close it.

For more about changing normal.dot, see:
