Hello,

In my application the user can use TAB-characters to format a textblock, the TAB's are saved in the database as Chr(09) characters (of course).

But when i try to use this datafield (a DBF-memofield) in a report, it converts the TAB's to spaces, which of course doesnt give the same result! As the user is using a proportional font, it is no option to use spaces in stead of the tab.

Does anybody know how i can format the text inside a textbox??

thanks Bas Schouten
