hey,

i have been having this problem in word, the numbering is fine through the document but when i press tab to change it to 17.1 it leaves a large gap between the text and the number. this consists for all .1 .2 .3 etc. when i press tab a second time the gap is gone and then 17.3.1 is displayed correctly but why is this gap only there for .1 and not for lower and higher levels of numbering. How do i remove the gap ?

so far i have tried the following:

resetting formating and renumbering (problem seams re-accruing )
right clicking the numbering and clicking decrease indent.


right click>adjust text indent>text indent at> change to a lower value.


help would be greatly appreciated.
