Crystal Thick Client: 11.5.10.1263

I have a formula I am using to concatenate some data that needs to be tab delimited. However when I use ChrW(9) it is inserting a Space instead of a Tab. Even if I do multiple instances, each one still just represents one space, so it's not just that the Tab happens to line up with a Space coincidentally.

I have tried concatenating with both + and &

Any suggestions on how to get the tab to come across?

Example snippet:
{Command.VEN_ITEM_DESC} & ChrW(9) & {Command.DESCRIPTION}

Nevermind. This was due to the same trailing spaces issue I had in another thread. Apparently that setting was also truncating the tabs.
