In the pre-Unicode days, this code:

set the itemdelimiter to tab
put empty into theData
put “jumbo” into item 4 of theData

would produce something that looked like this (in your mind replace “<tab>” 
with the blank spacing of a tab)

<tab><tab><tab>jumbo

In the Livecode 7 Unicode world, this is producing an output that looks like:

<tab>

<tab>

<tab>jumbo

In the IDE, when I use the magnify glass to examine theData, I can click in 
“jumbo” and use the right arrow to go through theData but when I try to use the 
left arrow to move back, it will move within “jumbo” but when it gets to the 
left of “j” it halts. The left arrow ceases to move the insertion point.

Why is each item on a separate line? How do I get Unicode Livecode to produce 
the same output as pre-7?
