What do I have to do to get a tab?

[eagletender]

I do a lot of lists in Word, then paste them into Access, and I must have a
tab in the first column.

However, Word seems to think I want something else there, particularly if it
is the first item in a list. I don't know what it puts, but it isn't a tab,
because it won't paste into Access and I don't see it when I show characters

I have turned off every Autocorrect option I can find.

Thanks for your help.

Just a thought here. Why not try using Notepad instead, to create your
lists?
