Using tabs in calculation field

Cable
in Calculation Engine (Define Fields)

Featured Replies

Is there a way to use tabs within a calculation field?

I have three separate fields of data. I want to make a calculation field that combines the data in all three fields into one field, while aligning the results to a tab. So, it would be [field 1] & 'tab' & [field 2] & 'tab' & [field 3]

I need to line up data from the calculation field between records, and I can't get nice columns. I tried counting characters and using spaces, but that only works if I use a fixed width font (which are ugly, IMHO).

Type Ctrl-Tab in the field's definition wherever you want a Tab to appear.

Wow. I had no idea it was that simple. Thanks!
