Can I switch the position of tabbed columns w/o retyping?

After entering data using tabs to set three columns, I realized I had two of
the columns in the wrong order. Do I have to retype the entire table or is
there a way to switch the two around?
 
Hi Lee...-

First, if not already on, click the Show/Hide ¶ button on the Standard
Toolbar so you can tell where the Tab (→) characters are. Hold the Alt key
while you drag to select the column(s) to be moved (text _and_ tab
characters), then either cut&paste or drag&drop to the right place.

An alternative would be to select all the listed material and use the
Table>Convert>Text to Table command, then edit the table to rearrange the
columns.
