I am not sure whether I understand your description correctly but it sounds
as if you only need to change a setting:
Select Office button > Word Options > Proofing – click the "AutoCorrect
Options" button. Click the "AutoFormat As You Type" tab and turn on the
setting "Set left- and first-indent with tabs and backspaces".

Lene, that fixed this issue for me... how in the world is this not checked by

my previous computer that I recently upgraded from).

Thank you Lene!!!!!
