    Indenting text

    I have multiple paragraphs within a form.  Each paragraph's text is contained it its own row.  I only want the first sentence indented, but when I have my cursor on the first sentence and enter a number in the Left Indentation box under Paragraph formatting, the whole paragraph becomes indented (every sentence).

     How can I indent just the first paragraph of a sentence?

    Thanks!

    This might sound silly, but perhaps you can just add a few spaces at the beginning of each paragraph to accomplish what you want?

    I'm not sure where you found that setting that you're referring to, and I think InfoPath may not have very good support for paragraph indentation, but how about just adding a certain number of spaces at the beginning of each paragraph?

    The setting I'm referring to is found by clicking on the small arrow, located in the lower right corner of the Format Text section on the Home ribbon in InfoPath 2010.  It opens a paragraph window to the right of the Fields listed on the forms.

    I did think of spacing but have multiple paragraphs in this forms where it seems like InfoPath should be able to handle this by using the indentation settings.
