Might it, though, depending on the setting of the Compatibility Option
regarding tabs and hanging indents?

I'm glad you got it sorted. However, I must have misunderstood your
initial
message, as I assumed you were trying to indent/outdent paragraphs with
bullet *formatting* in them. Such paragraphs would not be affected by a
custom tab stop being present in the text.

that settled the issue. Thank you.

Perhaps you have a tab stop set there? This will cause the built-in tab
stops to the left of it to be deleted.

thank you for the information. Did not stop the original problem
unfortunately. What is happening is that the tab key causes the cursor
to
jump to the middle of the page to about the 3.4 inch
How do I stop the tab key from jumping to the middle of the page?

On the AutoFormat As You Type tab of the AutoCorrect dialog box, make
sure
that "Set left and first indent with tabs and backspaces" is
selected,
after
which you should be able to promote and demote numberingm levels
using
Tab
and Shift+Tab.
To open the dialog box, do the following:
- Click Tools | AutoCorrect Options (Word 2003).
- Click Office button | Word Options; in the Proofing category, click
the
AutoCorrect Options button (Word 2007).

I'm having trouble with indents and tabs. Been using word for a
long
while
now, various versions, never had it do this before. Not sure what
brought
on
the change.
when using bullets, I'm trying to indent to various levels. I used
to
hit
the tab key or shift+tab to move the indent. Doesn't work anymore.
The
tab
key pops the cursor to the middle (3.4 on ruler) of the page. Not
sure
what
happened.
Anyone know how I can get his going back to the 0.5 incremental
indentation
that was activated by the tab and shift+tab?
Thanks,
Robert
