Tab delimited file on app server. How to do that?

Hello,

When i transfer a tab delimited file from pre. server(windows) to app. server(windows) using CG3Z , the tab delimitation is not working.

for eg : the file with below layout

01.04.2007 31.03.2008 1 120

01.05.2007 31.07.2008 2 140

is getting changed like

01.04.2007#31.03.2008#1#120

01.05.2007#31.07.2008#2#140

All i need is a tab delimited file in app server also . Wats that i need to do for this ? Also how can i write a tab delimited file on app server through my program using open dataset.

Thanks for ur time.
