You can select multiple adjacent columns and set tabs for all.

You can click the ruler to set a tab - even in the table, but only for the
column your insertion point is in at the moment.

To get to the tab dialog box (was Format, Tab), click the Paragraph dialog
box launcher (little button with the arrow to the right of the Paragraph
title at the bottom of the paragraph group on the Home tab) and then the
Tabs... button in the bottom left corner of that dialog box.
