I have an existing document with seveal bulleted items. I want to setup a
tab on the 1st bulleted item so I can lineup the responses to an item as seen
below.

Date: tab here
Subject: tab here

But when I set the tab on the "Date" line and then go to the "Subject" line
it has disappeared. Is there anyway to set up the tab and make it stick for
all the lines.

When you set tab stops, you're setting them for the current paragraph or
selection. If you select both paragraphs before setting the tab stop,
they'll apply to both. If you set a tab stop in one paragraph, it will also
apply to any further paragraphs you create by pressing Enter at the end of
that paragraph (or a subsequent one) until you delete the tab stop or reset
the paragraph style to the default.
