How do you get rid of tabs in Word?

Problem: I want to move some text forward one tab space, and it moves it two. Won't respond to the space bar.

Also, how do you SHUT OFF all those features that are (I assume) intended to help me, like autoformat? Making me so pissed off that I wanna stab the computer hundreds of times is not really helping me...End of rant.

Thanks. :)
 
I think you want to drag the tab markers with your mouse. Tab markers should be above the field along a ruler looking strip. The tools menu has a lot of options on it...be sure to click on the arrow at the bottom (if there is one) as it has more on it. ;)
 
Tabs are automatically set at 0.5".

To get rid of the Auto Tabs in a document, go to Format on your tool bar and select Tabs from the pull down menu. When the Tabs dialogue/menu opens, at the bottom right select Clear All to get rid of the tabs.

You can set tabs to any spacing you want in the Tabs box or just click and pull the tab bars in the document rulers to place the where you want them.


Good luck,
