Hi,

I want to be able to list the following:

1. describe $

but I want to be able to have "1" and "$" in the same spot each time but
when i reach the "$" sign I would like word to automatically go to the next
line and have it lined up with the start of the indentation at "describe"..
and preferrably the "$" needs to be in line with the last sentence of the
description..

Any help would be appreciated..

Use tab stops to set the positions, and tabs between words to go to
those positions. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926927.

But Kerrie will still need a line break before the $ and a hanging indent.
