1.HI Guys,

This is regarding usage of non-printable characters.As per the requirement, in a text string field, a 'space' should have a non-printable representation in the description field to enable the user to visualize the requirements.That is, on pressing the space bar it should display a non-printable character which should only be visualised while entering or displaying data and should not appear in print-out.

This is little urgent so if you guys can help me on this.

Thanks.

I am not sure about entering data but for visibility you can used any special symbol as non-printable character and while printing replace it with space.

HI Ravi,

But how can it be achieved? When space is hit in text field, it should appear as any special character instead of blank space.
