Default Jason tabs

Hi everybody !
In Word FAQ, Dave Rado suggest this :
"Make sure your heading styles are tab-free - in the case of list
numbered heading styles this is only possible of you define the styles
programmatically - for each list level, set .TabPosition=wdUndefined."
How do you do that ?
Many thanks,
Céline

If you are using Word 2002 or later you should be able to do this without
code. The new dialog allows you to customize your list formatting not to use
tabs - just choose 0 tab position and select "Follow number with: Nothing"
in the More ... section. Do this by customizing the heading styles as
explained by Shauna Kelly in

http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html

If you do want to use code, you can find an example at

You'll need to edit this to suit your format, including changing the tab
position lines to .TabPosition=wdUndefined
