Answer Line: When a Windows Update Makes Things Worse

Format Word Paragraphs

If you use the Tab key to indent your paragraphs in Microsoft Word or press Enter twice to put a blank line between paragraphs, there's a better way, especially if you'll be editing and reformatting the document. Before you start writing, select Format, Paragraph and click the Indents and Spacing tab. To indent the first line automatically, select First line in the Special field. To add a blank line between paragraphs, enter 12 pt in the After field. Click OK. If you make these changes to your normal.dot file, they will affect all new documents.
