On second thought, here's a procedure which may answer your first question 
about replacing a tab with a space.  Move to the top of the document with 
[SPACE with dots 1-2-3], [READ with T].  Enter Find and Replace by pressing 
[BACKSPACE with F], [CONTROL with F].  At the "Find?" prompt, press [SPACE with 
T], [TAB].  You will see a format indicator which looks like the Computer 
Braille dollar sign, dots 1-2-4-6, followed by the letter t.  Tap ENTER, and at 
the "Replace with?" prompt, press SPACE.  Tap ENTER, and at the "Replace all or 
first?", prompt, press A for "All".

I'm not exactly sure if this is what you were looking for, but I hope it's 
helpful.

HTH,
Maria
