I think you'd be better off with space(.prn) or comma delimited(.csv)
files.  Although I prefer using Sheetmate (shameless plug) from Hillary
Software on the HP3K.  The price isn't high, (although their maintenance
fee is greater than 12% of the purchase price, which is my rule of thumb).

Subject:        Tabs

I am connecting to an HP3000 via a Macintosh running Sessions.

I am trying to run a Query program and am composing the program in the
Editor.  I want to place tabs between each of the fields in the Query
program so it can be easily exported to Excel.

Why are the Tabs not exporting ?  Is there a special set of key strokes to
insert a Tab into a line in the Editor program ?

Thanks !
