Is it possible to enter a 'TAB' character into any of the Edit Boxes or Fields.

i.e. Trying to read a tabbed delimited file but can't set the delimiter as a tab caharacter (obviously jumps to next field).

Is there an equivalent of CHAR(n) in AM4?

Cheers

In the menu structure within AMS: Project/Settings, choose the Configuration tab, add a new constant named: #ASC_TAB# give it a value of 9 (same as chr(9)). Use #ASC_TAB# as a tab character.
