Default Don't even know how to word the question! 8-)

I've never been successful in bringing up the Tabs dialog from the ruler
without adding a tab, but if there's one already there and you double-click
on it carefully, you can usually succeed in not adding another one, at
least!

Hi Jay,

The bug that Beth mentioned is that going through the paragraph dialog to
change the tabs:
"the current settings in the Paragraph dialog box are set as the document
defaults for the attached template, usually Normal.dotM

I addition to using the Alt, O, T keyboard shortcut, double clicking on
the ruler will also bring up the dialog (of course it will
usually also add a tab g)

I haven't checked, but I don't think that was fixed in Service Pack 1.

Thanks to the "steel sieve", I can't remember now exactly what the bug
does
(something about overwriting the definition of the paragraph style setting
in
the Normal template with whatever is in the Paragraph dialog).
Double-clicking
the ruler is probably safe, but I'm not sure.

Ask Beth; she's the one who told me about it. I'd look it up on Google
Groups,
but they're in one of their "can't find anything" moods. :-(
