Indent Bullets with Tab Key

[Kiser]

I have a multi-level bullet list on my office computer and when I use the tab
key, my bullet list is indented and the next level of bullet is shown.
That's good.

On my computer at home, when I hit the tab key, it simply indents the same
bullet. I don't get the next level.

Any idea why that is and what I can do to get my home computer to perform
this function the same way as my office computer?

I'm using Window 2000 and Office XP in both locations.

Thanks
