I was trying to remove them all by following the instructions on Clearing All Tabs in a Document (Microsoft Word). But that didn't work.
But what did work was to go to Find&Replace. In the Find box, I searched for ` ^t ` (without the tick marks). I found this code by clicking "Special..." at the bottom of the Search&Replace box. Then, in the Replace blank, I had one space (one tap of the spacebar). That solved my problem. |

I'm glad you fixed your problem.
Clarification, though. You did not eliminate tab stops. This is a paragraph formatting setting. You replaced tab characters with space characters. The tab stop settings are still there. Setting Tabs by Suzanne Barnhill, MVP |
