Default easiest way to insert a tab inside a table cell?

While typing text inside a table cell, how can I type a tab character?
Pressing the tab button moves the cursor to the next table cell.
The only way I know is to copy a tab character from elsewhere and paste it
inside the cell. Is there a quicker way?

Peter, set tabs in table cells just as you do elsewhere -- by selecting
Format Tabs or simply clicking the ruler. Press Ctrl-TAB while in a table
cell to advance to the next tab stop to the right.

to easily insert a tab into a table cell, press CNTL+TAB
i.e hold down CNTL key and press tab key.
