Having a "follow number with" a tab is a must. But tabs aren't just not there if "number alignment" is set to "right". Looks like a MS Word glitch to me. And it is not fault of not trying.

Thanks for replying. Not solved, too bad.

Change the set tab at to 2.5 cm or whatever you want or leave this unchecked. This measurement is from the left margin, not from the point of alignment. You currently have it set for a point before your alignment point. I believe this clears the tab settings for the rest of the paragraph, making the tab non-operative.

If you want, post a sample document with the problem and I'll verify that this is what is happening.
