Macro with find/ replace steps is not behaving consistently

S

Steve

I am working in Word 2007 trying to find / replace outline heading styles
with a specified indentation
FIND REPLACE
Heading 1 : Inside indent 0
Heading 2 : Inside indent 0.5
Heading 3 : Inside indent 1
Heading 4 : Inside indent 1.5

The macro has been recorded correctly (as far as I can tell) - I checked the
script for the correct indents at least.
Trouble is the macro replaces heading 4 for inside indent 0 instead of 1.5.
I've tried recording the macro multiple times but have similar issues. All
my other macro scripts work okay.

Here's the script
Sub outliner08()
