subject: Tabs Problem In Word 7

I am running Word 7 under Windows 95 and have the following problem.
Before using an IBM compatible I used a Commodore 128 and did all my 
wordprocessing on a program called Wordwriter.
I have managed to convert most of the documents to straight ASCII and 
converted them to Word 7.
As it stands now there is just one document that I wish to continue 
using.  It is my video catalogue and my problem is using tabs.
I have a 13 page document set up as with the following columns:
Col 1   Col 2                                 Col 3  Col 4 Col 5 Col 6
^^^^^   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^     ^^^^^  ^^^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^^^
 ^      ^                                       ^      ^     ^     ^
"^" is where I have the tabs set which is fine for new information 
added to the document. However, is there any way I can get Word7 to 
recognize these tab settings in the document I have transferred from 
from Wordwriter?  The first 13 pages have no tab setting and I can't 
figure out a way of inserting them into my previously typed text. Any 
way of achieving my aim?
