I've found a solution that works for me. I find I prefer to use keystrokes that are universal rather than remember to use CTRL-tab in Legacy.
Also it's easier to transcribe into a TurboNote that sits on top of the image than into Legacy Note direct. The tabs stick when copying and pasting to Legacy. Generally it is only the spacing from the first column to second that needs adjusting in Legacy - because the name can be such different lengths and tab lengths are different.
As I said, currently web pages aren't my thing and I know very little about html. I'm sure what you said made sense when you typed it ( replace all < > with < >) but it hasn't come through in plain text. :-( Others may be interested in what you meant.

I don't see what the difference is between hitting tab in one program and hitting ctrl/tab in Legacy is. One thing to be aware of is that formatted text pasted into Legacy sometimes looks great -- until you close and re-open the note. Legacy shows -- initially -- Word formatting, for example, but strips it out on saving the note. On the other hand, whatever works for a user is what is important; if it's good, it's good.
If your output is html, you can build the table in your html editor, replace all < > with < >, and paste it in notes, it will format as a proper table in your web pages.
