creating a constant text string with tab separation

Hello,
 
I would like to find out the Lab View string code for inserting delimiting tabs.  I am trying to create colum heading for data string.  I have looked in the syntax help, but have not found any reference to tabs.  I have also tried simply typing the tab key, but this does not work either.
 
I am quite sure the solution is very simple, but I have not been able to find it.
 
thank you

The code is \t and there is also a tab constant in the string palette.

Check in the online help for Backslash ('\') Codes Display  for a complete description of the options ... and make sure you switch the sting constant to '\' Code Display by right clicking.
