Getting the first tab setting for all of the numbered paragraphs far enough to the right so that the first tab space is an adequate distance from ALL of the paragraph numbers (the suggestion I made above) is the only way get them uniform. Word 2003 and earlier: On the Format menu, choose Tabs. You can also double-click on the ruler itself, but this will result in setting a tab stop where you click. If you’re looking for a solution that gets paragraph 10(a) perfectly aligned with paragraph 9(a) without having to re-set tab settings for 1-9, I cannot help you. There are several ways to access the Tabs dialog in Word: Any version: Double-click on any tab stop on the horizontal ruler. If you’re putting a tab after a paragraph number that you’re entering manually, and that first left tab setting falls too close to “9(a)”, then when you get to “10(a)”, the next tab setting is naturally going to be further to the right than the first post-number tab setting for number “9(a)”.
(2) What are your tab settings (defaults and manuals)? Are they the same throughout your document, or do they differ within or between these numbered paragraphs? (1) Are you typing the paragraph numbers in manually, or using automatic paragraph numbering? Those will be two totally different scenarios that require two totally different answers.
After all, I can’t see your or Wayne’s documents, so I’m trying to answer your questions (on my own time, at that) without the benefit of being able to examine your document: Access the Tabs dialog box In the Tab stop position text box, type the desired value (in inches) Adjust the tab alignment and leader if necessary Click SET To set additional tabs, repeat steps 2-4 >After all tabs have been set, click OK Deleting Tabs.
