Hi

I am writing a document and when I go to use bullets and then add a tab character after the bulleted word the whole of the text bullet and all moves to the right. Is it not possible to add a tab after the bulleted item.

Eg: 1. Text "if I now try to add a tab the text then moves to the right."

1. 1. 1. Text

Below is how it looks in MS Word

1.     Text                     today is 

Regards

Bill
