Hi,
How do I use the tab literal (ascii 9) in text in report builder?
Thanks,

    Hi Ariel,

    Tabs should only be used in TppMemo and TppRichText components. Tab
    characters can be entered into a TppMemo manually in the Report Designer
    only by right clicking over the Memo object and selecting the "Lines"
    option. Then the key will work for inserting tabs into your memo
    text. Note that if you access the "Lines" property from the Object
    Inspector, the key will not work. Tabs (#9) can also be inserted into
    a memo or rich text in code using the TppMemo.Lines or TppRichText.RichText
    properties.
