I am working on a form that has MANY tab settings. I have reach the maximum
allowed and need to enter 8 more. Is there anyway to change this?

What makes you think there is a maximum allowed?

I received a prompt that stated "There are too many tab stops set in this
paragraph".

As far as I know you're limited to a maximum of 64 (same limit as columns in
a table).

On a maximum page width of 22" that's approximately 3 per inch all the way
across. Do you really need more than that? What are you doing? With a bit
of trial and error I'm sure you could arrange to use some spaces in
appropriate font sizes to do the extra alignments.

And keep in mind that you don't need to have tab stops at regular
intervals--only where you actually want tabs to stop; see

Thanks for your help - I am going to have to break up the form into two pages.
