HELP!!

I'm trying to use the tab stops bit in a drop down combo box
just like a list box.

What I'm doing is setting the tab stop bit for my combo box on and
adding strings to the box with '\t' characters.  I'm expecting to see
the drop down box with aligned column string entries but all I get are 
funny characters in place of the '\t' characters.

This same procedure works fine with a list box.

Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?  Thanx, in advance.
