Default tabs word 97

Thanks Suzanne.

Unless you double-click the Format Painter, it's good for only one
application. When you copy a format using Ctrl+Shift+C, it remains

available
until you copy a different format. You can do other tasks in Word and

later
paste the same format as often as you like.

Would the Format Painter do the same job or is there an advantage to

using
the CTRL + SHIFT method??

Select a paragraph with the tabs you want and Ctrl+Shift+C. Then use
Ctrl+Shift+V to paste the formatting onto any other paragraph. Note,
however, that *all* paragraph formatting will be copied/pasted. The

more
efficient way to do this is to define a style with the desired tab

stops,
then apply it as needed.

Is there any way to copy one set of tabs? I notice that the tab

marker
in
the top rule shows changes in tabs when I scroll through the

document,
but
I
find it very difficult to match those tabs. The "Paint" option does

not
seem to carry the tabs with it. I usually end up erasing all the

tabs
and
resetting all the tabs, which sometimes causes havoc.

Select all the text on the page before setting the tabs.
