Rich, I actually keyed a TAB character, not spaces.

The '\t' (or use double quotes to keep Gates and Balmer happy) is the standard ASCII code for a tab. The number of spaces in a tab is not universally fixed at the same width, and spaces are not equal to a tab. When you're in the sqlite command line editor, type .h to see all the help. The .mode command is also useful when dumping or exporting to a disk file. Rich -- Richard B.
