I have a text box, (it might become a RTB)
I would like to format indented paragraphs that word wrap within the paragraph. EX(I hope it works :))
SERVICE
GROUNDING
The electrical service entrance and distribution system
equipment shall be grounded as follows and as shown in the
electrical details; in compliance with NEC article 250 and state
and local codes.
1. Ground neutral at main service equipment to available
underground water piping over 10 ft. long and to 3/4"
Dia. 10 ft. long copperweld driven ground rod(s).
If someone edits the above I would like word wraping so that the text is left justified within its respective paragraph.
Is it possible to to with a text box or a rich text box?
thank you for your time and have a good day

UHHHHHHH!!!!!
Why cant I get the above to lay out right!!!
SERVICE (left justified)
GROUNDING(indented 3 spaces)
The electrical(indented 6 spaces)
1. Ground neutral(indented 9 spaces)
undergound(indented 12 spaces so that the "u" is lined up with the "G" above it
each line is 65 characters long(never changes!)
Right now it is all left justified but can be formated with tabs and spaces. I want to automate the manual tabs and spaces.

Man, I don't know the answer to your question, but I do know one thing! You can edit once more your post and then delete, erase, kill or elimine all those "This message edited by..."

I like them there :)
it is a testament to how hard I had to work on getting that thing to lay out right

When in word the term is "hanging indent"
if that helps.
let me ask a question regarding MS Word.
can you set up word so that it has a 65 character width. I am using a mono spaced font. The way autocad works is that I give it a set number of characters per line and it scales them to fit on the page. We have selected 65 characters. One reason I am using a text box is that it is easy to control the width of the box and make it unchangeable.
I wish I could show you people my program. That way the common intellegence could see if I should try a different approch or if it is possible with a text box or rich text box to get a hanging indent.
thank you for your time and have a good day
