Thanks, Bill, I was afraid that might be the case. Out of curiosity, what on
earth is the "right tab" supposed to do? PowerPoint Help shows how to insert
one (as well as a "center tab" on the ruler line, so it must do something.

Pete,
A right tab aligns the text so that all the items in a tabbed column are
flush right. So when you hit the tab key and type, all your characters will
move to the left of the cursor position. It's the same as in Word for a good
example of what tabs can do for you go here: PPT is just the same except you
cannot have a line tab.
