Default Best way to delimit text file

To manually create a tab delimited file:
File | Save As
Then select "Text (Tab delimited) (*.txt)" as the "Files of type"

option.

Awesome. Thanks. Is it too much to ask to show a few lines of what a
tab-delimited text file would look like ? I will be writing to this
text file from a program, so I won't be able to manually create the
file as you suggested.


I can't watch this any longer. Yes, it's far too much to ask. Chew your own
food. Do as described once, open the file in notepad or similar and have a
long good look at what a tab-delimited text file would look like.

Best wishes Harald
