I understand.

Thanks, Stefan.

Yep, that is the solution. Thanks, Beth.

Don't know what you mean by "post all follow-up questions to the
newsgroup".

Typically you can click anywhere on the Ruler to set a tab. It's in
making
adjustments they will snap to the Drawing grid. You may want to check
your
Document Grid settings. In Word 2007 you can find it on the Page Layout
tab
in the Arrange group under Align. In previous versions, display the
Drawing
toolbar, click Draw/Grid.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for

Stephan, thanks -- the Alt key is a good solution. However, I don't
understand why I can't place a tab exactly on a ruler increment. I
have
the
the tab stops set on the ruler increments via the Tabs dialog box as
suggested and still the tabs snaps to a position in between the ruler
increments.

The increments are determined by the settings for the document grid.
When
dragging the tab stop on the ruler, you can hold the Alt key to
override
the
grid. Alternatively, set the tab stops via the Tabs dialog box
instead.

I can't seem to set a tab precisely on a ruler marker at 1", 2", 3",
4",
5",
6" even though I have the default tab stops set on the ruler markers
at
each
inch. The tabs default to a spot in between the ruler markers
rather
than
precisely on the ruler markers.
