Thanks, I'd looked through my archive but not found that somehow! It
doesn't quite solve this particular problem as I'd have to edit the tab
ruler for each seperate line :-( Not to worry, I shall just have to
redesign the advert instead. It was originally done in Impression (using
decimal tabs) and subsequently imported into OvPro. Impression did
exactly what I expected, so I was puzzled by the problem when importing.
