I am also having a problem with this in Word 2003. I adopted someone else's
documentation. She has the style as a numbered style, not as an outline
numbered style. Clicking the Increase Indent does exactly what I want it to
do, but it does so with .5" indents, where I'm looking for .25" indents. I've
tried resetting the tabs to default to .25", but Tab button not increase
indenting - it just moves over my text and keeps the numbering in the same
place.
Is there anything I can do to change the default indent, or do I have to
change the style to an outline numbered list? I'd rather the former, only
because there are a great many documents that currently use this style.
