Set tab stops in Pages on Mac. You can set tab stops to align text left, right, at the center, or on a decimal point. With tab stops in place, pressing the Tab key (or Option-Tab in a table cell), moves the insertion point (and any text after it) to the next tab stop. After you set tab stops, you can change their alignment and spacing, change the symbol used for decimal-aligned tab stops. Using tabs gives you more control over the placement of text. By default, every time you press the Tab key, the insertion point will move 1/2 inch to the right. Adding tab stops to the Ruler allows you to change the size of the tabs, and Word even allows you to apply more than one tab stop to a single line.

In this case, I am going to use Microsoft Word 2010 for this troubleshooting. If there is no tab in Word, you should choose to access the Word Add-ins Manager to enable it manually. For Office 2010, Click File > Options > Add-Ins. For Office 2007, Click Office icon > Word Options > Add-ins.

Note: If you are using Microsoft Office 2007, please make sure both the Tabs for Word (32-bit) and Office Tab Helper are enabled.
Why Office Tab will become disabled sometimes? That’s because there are some other Office add-ins which is not compatible with Office Tab in your Office application. In this case, you should try to disable some other Office add-ins which you don’t need to use, and just keep Office Tab enabled.

- To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.Regarding my earlier question about restoring previous Excel defaults, after unchecking 'Enable Tabs for Excel' on the Office Tab Center, you have to go into Excel: Options, Advanced, Display, and check 'Show all windows in the taskbar.'
Then multiple workbooks can be opened and macros run between them.
When you check 'Enable Tabs for Excel,' afterward, then the 'Show all windows' option automatically becomes unchecked.
Hope this helps someone else! :) - To post as a guest, your comment is unpublished.In Excel, I have macros that run between workbooks (in the same application of Excel). I have unchecked 'Enable for Excel' in the Office Tab Center and I can no longer have multiple tabs. But I am unable to have multiple workbooks open as I was before I started using Office Tab. (I have closed out and restarted Excel.) Every time I open a second workbook, it closes the first.
Any suggestions? I love Office Tab, but being able to disable it completely and return to previous Office settings is crucial for me. :)
