Linked Cell Indentation Fullført

I was not able to indent the second line of a linked cell after choosing not to "Use Link Formatting from Source". Is there a way to do that?   For the cell above, I would like to indent the word "net."

Headers & Footers Besvart

In Next Gen - do you  have to assign headers and footers? In Classic we had a drop down to choose the header or footer you wanted.  I don't see that in Next Gen.
