    Go to Format. From the menu, select paragraph. The tabs option should be along the top, underneath background.

    Here's a pic just incase my explanation is a bit off ha.

    Find esc. in the top left, then it is down from there, above Caps Lock. It usually says 'Tab' or has two arrows.

    Look all the way on the left side of your keyboard. It is exactly next to the Q on the left side, and it's right above caps lock, which is above shift, which is above "ctrl".

    I hoped this helped!
