Can't Tab Selected Text

[Mike Kiekover]

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

In Tools > AutoCorrect Options > AutoFormat As You Type, check the box for "Set
left and first indents with tabs and backspaces".
