Hi Allen, I think you'll find that field members show the TAB character as a box (and only on Windows), while text members behave as you would expect. Text members also have the advantage that you can manually set the width of the columns, either through the Text member editor window, or by setting the .tabs property. In both cases, these settings can be applied either to the whole member (select the entire text in the editor window), or to individual lines.
