Hi,

You put ,, for tabs as you know.

1 0.65 cm left

2. 0.85 cm left

3. 1.00 tw left

These mean that:

First tab 'that is first ,,' will stop at 0,65, if you put second ,, near to first then it will <b>not</b> stop at 1.30, it will stop at 0.85, if you put third tab near second like ',, ,, ,,' then it will stop at 1.

Hope helps.

Hi,

It is very simple to understand tab settings.

If you want A to be printed at 1 cm and B to be printed at 3 cm, the first tab space would be 1 CM nad second would be 3 CM.

Left alignment means the characters start printing from the tab value.

Right alignment means the chracters will be prited upto max of <tab_value>.

In your case -

the first field is printed at 0.65 cm left oriented, second from 0.85 cm.
