How to create 'sub-headings' after a dash
- Jan 09, 2025
Sorry but your reply was not helpful.
I ended up turning to chat gpt and gave it a lot of instructions about my situation,
just incase somebody has the same issue (I wouldn't expect them to find themselves here due to the vague name I provided), to fix this issue, you press cntrl+M after creating a new indented line.
This will have the following effect.
- This is the first line
- This is the line after you press contrl+m
- pressing cntrl+shift+m will decrease the indent

Do not expect Word to work like other programs or even a typewriter. The second link is key, long term, to making good use of a very powerful program.

Note that Ctrl+M sets a left indent (or increases an existing left indent). It has nothing to do with headings and subheadings.
