Harold,
Since Ctrl-Tab worked for you, I found the Ctrl-Tab hotkey in my KDE Control Center configuration and disabled it for KDE, since I don't use that function anyway. Now the Ctrl-Tab key works as it should in OO.o Writer table cells.
Thanks for your help.

I am running OO.o version 2.4.1 on Slackware Linux and KDE. My problem is putting tab characters inside a Writer table cell. The table ruler indicates tabs are settable, but pressing Tab in a cell advances to the next cell of the table. I also tried Ctrl-Tab but that brings up KDE's desktop selection window, so KDE must be intercepting the keyboard entry. Alt-Tab brings up another KDE window to select a window on the current desktop, so it is also used by KDE.

Does anyone know how to insert a Tab in a Writer table cell?

Thanks in advance.

Hmmm. On my Windows XP Pro using OOo 2.4.0 Ctrl-Tab does exactly what you want. There doesn't seem to be any setting in my OOo for this (Tools>Customize>Keyboard). Is there in your OOo? Or is there something in your Linux/KDE that you can configure?
