Gang--

You'll note, however, that dean is using VB/VBScript.<g>

As it turns out, the right tab character is chr(8). I don't know how this can be true (isn't ASCII 8 used for something else?), but it works.

So you can construct the string using something like the following:



myString = "Usher" & chr(8) & "Dean Kroon" & vbcr & "Best Man" & chr(8) & "John Doe" & vbcr & "Brides Maids" & chr(8) & "Jane Doe" & vbcr & chr(8) & "Jill Doe"

Dean--does that do what you want?

Thanks,

Ole
