Rev 2.7.1 on Win XP:

I created a new field, then selected its Table Properties just to set 
tabstops.  Rev is totally unresponsive, and I'm rebooting as I write 
this.

Does this happen to anyone else?  Last time this happened I checked the 
Message Watcher, and found that all mouse clicks resulted in crevTable 
messages--or something like that-- instead of mouseUp/down..

IMFO, Rev's tabStop setting mechanism sucks.  The tabStops only appear 
on the Table Properties, and even if you expand the Table Properties 
window, the tabStops field doesn't grow to allow access to all settings 
(in my case I can only get to 5 of 7 tabStops).

And just setting tabStops or vertical/horizontal grids in a field 
should not invoke the whole spreadSheet/Table overhead, me thinks.
