TAB character

539340Nov 6 2006 — edited May 27 2008
Hello Gurus.

I am working with Oracle Reports 6i and I simply try to print a TAB char at the beginning of my paragraphs. Adding the chr(9) when needed does not work, it is replaced by a space. And space don't work for me as my text is justified.

Is there really no way to have a tab character (indentation) with report?

For example, how can I do this:

(TAB here) Dear Mister Scott,

(TAB here) I would like to indent the first line of my paragraph with Oracle Reports 6i. As the TAB character (chr(9)) does not work with Reports, how could I simply do this? My text is justified and each paragraph is linked to a field.

Thanks in advance!
Guille
