Hello VBA Gurus,

I have a question:
Is there a way to set tabs in a texbox? It seems to default to the Word .5" setting.

My textbox is Multiline and has to capture a series of information.

Example:

344 2005 January 12 Edmonton
2816(a) 2004 December 23 Calgary

The end result that gets entered into my Word Form should be nicely lined up (tabbed). The Texbox also should feel right to the user (tabs on the right spots)

The reason why I went with this multi-line texbox is that the number of lines is unknown. There could be only 1 or 25 lines or any number in between needed.

Is there any way to achieve this via VBA?? :dunno

Thanks in advance for your help.

Trudy

Hello again,

Well, when I typed my Post - the stuff in my example was all nicely lined up - but now it all is mushed together - I hope to understand my question anyway.
