subject: Wild Indent in 6.0

 BS> Using wp 6.0c DOS (12/5/94)
 BS> Have a 2-column document in which I used
 BS> Indent (F4) at point X:
 BS>         texttexttexttexttexttext
 BS>         texttexttexttexttexttext
 BS>                 Xyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
 BS>                  yyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
 BS> If I replace the indent with a tab, and put a tab on
 BS> each "y" line, it holds its shape just fine.
 AR>I'd say that you used F4 indent somewhere within a multi-line 
 AR>sentence. That is the usual thing causing such behaviour. F4's should 
 AR>only follow hard returns, tabs or other F4's. NEVER soft-returns!
Except in tables?
