Numbered List Tab Error in Word 2002

[Ryan]

When creating a numbered list after the 3rd entry the
next line is indented less then the lines before it.

EXAMPLE:

1. ONE
2. TWO
3. THREE
4. FOUR
5. FIVE

Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan,

Did you do something different when creating Line 4 than
lines 1 through 3? Like, you selected 1 - 3, applied
numbering, then pressed ENTER at the end of Line 3 to
create Line 4?

Are the WordPerfect options activated in
Tools/Options/General?

When creating a numbered list after the 3rd entry the
next line is indented less then the lines before it.

EXAMPLE:

1. ONE
2. TWO
3. THREE
4. FOUR
5. FIVE
