Hi Babu,

In Scripts, in Paragraph Format u can find the Tabs Push button.

there, u can mention the Tab positions for a particular Paragraph and use the paragraph in the text editor.

Please check this link

By defining tabs in paragraph format u can display internal table fields.

Tabs in Paragraph Formats

You can define as many tab positions as you require for each paragraph format. The text can be aligned in different ways:

u2022 Left-aligned with LEFT

u2022 Right-aligned with RIGHT

u2022 Centered with CENTER

u2022 At the sign with SIGN

u2022 At the comma or decimal point with DECIMAL

You can control the tab feed in a paragraph with tab positions. The tab stops you define in the paragraph format replace the tab spacing you defined in the header data of the form. However, this depends on the extent to which you have defined tab stops in the paragraph format. If there are fewer tabs in the paragraph formats than in the header data, the tab stops of the header data are used for the rest of the line. The tab stops are represented as, , in the text editor.

You can use different units of measurement to define a tab position:

u2022 CH Characters

u2022 CM Centimeters

u2022 MM Millimeters

u2022 PT Points

u2022 TW Twips (1/20 point)

The unit of measurement CH is converted to an absolute unit of measurement using the CPI value (characters per inch) from the header data of the form.

Regards,

Joy.
