Can't Tab Selected Text "Mike Kiekover" <mike.kiekover[ at ]worleyparsons.com> 12/26/2008 11:27:54 PM I used to be able to select a groupof text, then hit the tab key and the whole group of selected text would tab over. Now if I select text and hit tab, the text is deleted. I assume some setting was inadvertantly changed. Any clue how to get this working again? Thanks Word 2007 XP Pro Mike K ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com **
