One of the reasons you may not be alone is because the documentation
is not much good when it comes to table fields.
I have my suspicions that they have been overlooked; possibly in the mad
rush towards datagrids.

I had the same problem when I started using Tables and after I found the
TAB delimiter "trick" as per Hermann, it was obvious (20/20 Hind sight).
The Aha! moment came when using commas messed it up by putting them all in
1 column with the commas intact. I just assumed everybody knew and I was
a slow learner- nice to know I was not alone

Clever stuff.
Thanks an awful lot for what seemed like a knotty problem.
Also good because this:
settheitemDelimitertotab
put"Biscuits" intoitem 3 ofline 7 offld "TF"
put"Cheese" intoitem 5 ofline 7 offld "TF"
did not delete the "biscuits".

You could try:
set the itemdelimiter to tab
put "cheese" into item 3 of line 3 of fld "TF"
