Ever wanted make a standard textbox control behave more like a Word document? This is a "cheaters" way to mimic a TAB key inserted into a control (in this case, a Memo field).

Instead of a TAB character, it insert four spaces (number of spaces can be adjusted with code) at the current cursor location. I call it a pseudo-TAB.

The attached database illustrates the method.

Enjoy.
