Hi pixelprincess,

For the first problem, I'd suggest selecting the first 'problem' paragraph and defining a paragraph Style, with a first-line indent of whatever you require (Ctrl-Alt-Shift-S then click the 'New Style' button at the bottom of the pop-up, followed by Format|Paragraph gets you there). You'll need to give the Style a new name (eg 'Main'). Alternatively, you might prefer to chhose the 'Body Text' Style and modify that. Then you can select the ranges you want to apply the Style to and simply hit F4 to repeat the Style as often as you want, or you can select the Style name from Word's Style list (Ctrl-Alt-Shift-S).

For the second problem, perhaps another wildcard Find/Replace, where:
Find = [ ]([a-z][ ])
Replace = \1
