Is there an easy way to add a TAB character into a text calculation?

For example if I want a calc field to evaluate as something like: "Apple[TAB]Banana",

...how would I identify the [TAB] in the calc definition? My first instinct was " t " but that appears as literal text and not as [TAB].

Anyone?

you can paste it into the calculation after copying it from a regular field. You get it into the field by typing option-tab.

Thanks. Pasting works.

(Although option-Tab does not seem to work for me in the Define Calculation window. Option-Tab does work for me in a text field in Browse mode, but that is not what I'm looking to do in this particular case.)
