formatting challenge "seanab[ at ]gmail.com" <seanab[ at ]gmail.com> 24.08.2006 23:11:18 I'm having real trouble trying to get my outline text to wrap neatly at ALL outline levels. I'm using MS Office for Mac By adjust tabs in the top of the doc, I can get items at Level 2 of my outline to indent and wrap neatly (i.e. every line starts at the same point on the page, even when the text wraps to a second, third or fourth line). However, I can't make ALL of my outline levels wrap neatly. AND, to add insult to injury, I can't seem to locate the formatting paintbrush in any of my menus. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: formatting challenge Daiya Mitchell <daiyaNOSPAM[ at ]mvps.org.INVALID> 25.08.2006 07:17:43 MacWord 2004 Help tells me there is a Format Painter on the Standard Toolbar, with a paintbrush on the icon, and indeed there is. There might also be one on the View | Formatting Palette, not sure. Which version are you using? There are Mac Office newsgroups also, if Mac-specific problems come up (numbering is not one, I just mention it for future reference) See here for Google/Entourage gateway to newsgroups for MacWord, MacExcel, and other MS programs for the Mac: <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups> On 8/24/06 4:11 PM, "seanab[ at ]gmail.com" wrote: [Quoted Text] > I'm having real trouble trying to get my outline text to wrap neatly at > ALL outline levels. > > I'm using MS Office for Mac > > By adjust tabs in the top of the doc, I can get items at Level 2 of my > outline to indent and wrap neatly (i.e. every line starts at the same > point on the page, even when the text wraps to a second, third or > fourth line). > > However, I can't make ALL of my outline levels wrap neatly. > > AND, to add insult to injury, I can't seem to locate the formatting > paintbrush in any of my menus. > > Any help would be appreciated. > > Thanks! > -- Daiya Mitchell, MVP Mac/Word Word FAQ: http://www.word.mvps.org/ MacWord Tips: <http://word.mvps.org/Mac/WordMacHome.html> What's an MVP?
