Hi, this is a mysterious thing which seem to be imtruduced in Ooo 2.0 since the following worked in 1.1: mainly for bibliography me (an most german users who want to write a diploma and things like this) need this format: [##] Names of the authors Title of the book etc Address, Year this was possible in doing: [##]TAB Names of the authors TAB Title of the book etc TAB Address, Year ...in order to obtain the essential line breaks. But in version 2 this doesnt work anymore, now you get: [##]TAB Names of the authors TAB Title of the book etc TAB Address, Year and this is not good. This issue seems also to apply to any other kinds of indexes as far as i tested. Now, for the solution it would be nice to have it working again as in OOo 1 (like they do if they are created in OOo 1 and opened in OOo 2 ) BUT sincerely, i think it would be much simpler for a solution and easier for the user to have added the option to insert also line breaks in addition to tabs when formatting any index. Like this it would also be more transparent, user friendly and ... well, working :-) Additionally line breaks are also very useful when making other indexes like bibliography. many thanks.
