Tabulator in string variable?

[df1zn@my-deja.com]

I am using Labview 5.1 and I want to show a header
part of a file in a labview program. I display the
information using a string variable. There are
tabulators in the header string to separate the
information. These tabulators are diplayed as \t
if I use the "\"Code display setting of the string
variable. If I use the normal display setting the
tabulators are only displayed as blanks.

Is it possible to get working tabulators in a
labview string???

One way to get round this would be to use a string array indicator on the
front panel. Then use the 'Spreadsheet string to array' function to turn
your tab text to the string array. Dont forget to connect a string array
constant to the array type connector.
