Default Setting tabs within a table column

How do I set tabs within a table column. I can't seem to find an formatting
option. I'm using MS2007.

Thanks!

Does the ruler not work for you?

Use FormatTabs. Also you must use Ctrl+Tab to move to a tab stop in a
table.

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.

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