Tab That No Longer Exists Does Not Copy Using
DocumentID: 612474

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When the user blocks the last column of a tabular column that contains an extra tab at the end of the line, the user expects the extra tab to be moved with the rectangular block. The tab does not move with the block if there is a tab setting above the tabular columns; however, the tab does move with the block as expected if the tab setting is not present.

Steps to Duplicate:
1.      Create a tab setting that has six tabs
2.      Type information, using all six tabs
3.      Press Home, Home, Up Arrow and redefine the tab setting to five tabs
4.      Perform a rectangular block (Ctrl-F4, 3) on the last column by turning Block on at the beginning of the column, then including the last Hard Return [HRt] after the last tab

A [Block] code appears in front of the column, and a [Block] code also appears before the tab after the columns. If the tab set (step 3) is not present above the tabular columns, the [Block] code appears before the column and after the last tab (as expected). Solutions: This problem cannot be duplicated with the current version of the program. Because it does not occur in WP 6.0, this probably will not be addressed in WP 5.1. If you continue to receive calls on this situation, please contact your team leader who can take the necessary steps to include it on the common call list.
