SUMMARY
When you use the Bullets And Numbering command in Word for Windows,
paragraphs with varied hanging indent formatting that are numbered or
bulleted as a group may not retain their original hanging indent
formatting.
MORE INFORMATIONPage 524 of the version 2.0 "Microsoft Word for Windows User's Guide" states that "Word does not change the existing formatting" when you add numbers or bullets to paragraphs with hanging indent formatting. This statement is not true for paragraphs that contain varied hanging indent formatting. Steps to Reproduce Problem
If the hanging indent option is cleared in the Bullets And Numbering dialog box, the paragraphs lose the first-line indent formatting and the left indent is set to the value of the original left indent plus the original first-line indent. For example, if the paragraph is formatted with a 1-inch left indent and a -.5-inch first-line indent, after you number or bullet the paragraph, it will have a .5-inch left indent (1" + -.5") and a 0-inch first-line indent.
