Hi Jonny,

To remove the unwanted indenting, click on the 'Decrease indent' symbol on the paragraph block on the Ribbon's Home tab.

Alternatively, hitting enter twice after an existing paragraph will result in a new un-numbered and un-indented paragraph being created. you could then type the (a) in the new paragraph and, when you press the space or tab key, a re-started a-b-c sequence will hve started. You can then simply copy the text from the 'problem' paragraph into it, then delete the problem paragraph.
