Thank you all -- the help file is pretty clear but I am beginning to wonder if the feature was never implemented. This is exactly what I did - all I want is to change the tabstop! (which is hard enough)

I made a simple change to the default bullet numbering scheme -- I added a tab before the number. I want to apply that change to all bulleted lists in my document. The Help file says "The Name setting lets you name your new list format and set it as a global format which can be used across the document". So I put in a name and I checked the Global checkbox as shown in the image. But how do I use that in my other lists? I expected my name to show up as a dropdown or something. I even tried typing the name of my list into the Name field on the other list - no luck. Best, Nicholas

Well, this was exactly what I was looking for, so thank you for that tip! I'd have never found that Show Background box. Thanks!
