Bullet Point and Numbering Formatting

B

BSK

I have a problem with bullet point and numbering "outline" format that I
cannot figure out. When I assign a default bullet point or numbering
"outline" style to a list, it does not change levels when I hit tab like it
did originally.

For as long as i have used bullet points and numbering in word, powerpoint,
etc., when I hit tab key, the cursor would indent and assign next level
settings (ie level 1, tab would bring up level 2, such as lines below):

1) "first line typed here", key return
(brings up this line)
2)
Then if hitting tab key, the line would change to something like
a)

this no longer happens. now if i hit tab key, it just tabs over.

Any ideas???????????

Select Tools > Autocorrect Options and the AutoFormat As You Type tab.

Check the "Set left and first indent with tabs and backspaces" box.
