I am working on a report for a client that needs the report to be exported in tab-delimited format with blank columns. They'll use the file to upload into some other system so they have to have these blank columns to make it work.

I have tried a lot of stuff and I can't figure out what to do. This is what I have as an example:

Order Date | Order Number |   |   |   | Employee ID | etc.

The pipes are grid lines. I have found this exports just fine to Excel when I base the export on the page header but I can't figure out how to make this work for tab-delimited export.

Let me know if I need to give further info. Thanks!
