Hi,
I need to write a file as tab delimited on the application server. I've tried the following two methods to achieve this:
- data: tab_hex(2) type X Value '09'. ( Can't use this as the app server is using
AIX a flavor of UNIX.)
- CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB (The client is running version
4.6C, so this is not available.)
Does anyone know the hexadecimal for horizontal tab in Unix?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Philip Johannesen

Is this an EBCDIC system?
IBM systems (AIX is IBM's flavor of Unix) frequently use EBCDIC.
If it is EBCDIC tab would be hex 05, I believe.
e.g.
data: tab_hex(2) type X Value '05'.
Good luck
Brian
