Using the hanging paragraph feature is one way to go.  However, I've found
it frustrating sometimes because there is no quick way to double check your
work.  For this reason I would consider using a table with 2 columns, one
titled "initials", and the other titled "response".  If you adjust your
document so that you have margins of .5 on top, bottom, right and left, and
adjust the column width of the initial column to 1 inch or 1.5 inches, that
will leave you with enough room to set the "response" column to a width of
5.5 inches or 6 inches.  If when you are done sighted readers do not like
the look of the lines from the table, then just change your table line
settings to none.

HTH,
Annette

Subject: [JAWS-Users] help with setting tabs in microsoft word

Hi Gang,

I am trying to set tabs in Microsoft word.  I am trying to type a document
for an insurance company. It is a live interview with a client.  What I have
to do is type the initials of the attorney, then tab, and then type what he
says.  Then I enter twice.  Then I type the initials of the other person,
tab, and type what he says.  What I don't know is when I get to the end of
the line, I want the second line to line up with the first word the person
says, and not his initials.  I hope I am explaining it well enough.  
I know very little about Microsoft word since I play music for a living.  I
was just trying to do some typing on the side.
Any help would be appreciated.

Candy
