indenting in v8 is killing me

I'm not sure what setting I've got wrong, but something about the indent from v7 to v8 works differently, and it's going to be the death of my OCD, which I've grown to like.

Take this query:

Code:
CREATE TABLE
(
  first_name VARCHAR2(100)
, last_name  VARCHAR2(100)
, co_address VARCHAR2(100)
, address    VARCHAR2(100)
, city VARCHAR2(100)
, state VARCHAR2(100)
, zip_code VARCHAR2(100)
, zip_4 VARCHAR2(100)
, source_cd VARCHAR2(100)
)

if I want to line up those datatypes, all I used to have to do was put the cursor on the V in the "city" line (and all the subsequent lines), and hit tab. The result would be this:

Code:
CREATE TABLE
(
  first_name VARCHAR2(100)
, last_name  VARCHAR2(100)
, co_address VARCHAR2(100)
, address    VARCHAR2(100)
, city       VARCHAR2(100)
, state      VARCHAR2(100)
, zip_code   VARCHAR2(100)
, zip_4      VARCHAR2(100)
, source_cd  VARCHAR2(100)
)

But in v8, if I do the exact same thing, what I end up with is this:

Code:
CREATE TABLE
(
  first_name VARCHAR2(100)
, last_name  VARCHAR2(100)
, co_address VARCHAR2(100)
, address    VARCHAR2(100)
  , city VARCHAR2(100)
  , state VARCHAR2(100)
  , zip_code VARCHAR2(100)
  , zip_4 VARCHAR2(100)
  , source_code VARCHAR2(100)
)

Instead of the tab being applied at the cursor, plsd indents the entire line, which is infuriating.

Please help.
 
I cannot reproduce this. The data types align just fine when I press tab before the V of VARCHAR2.

Is the "smart tab" editor preference enabled? Do you have any Plug-Ins installed that could conflict with tab processing?
