col in status bar

[sledge]

Is there a way to access the Col value in the status bar with VBA?

I want to be able to replace the indents and tabs with spaces so I can
create a txt file maintaining the layout of the document.
I am using a monospaced font throughout the document and have to append
several word, wordperfect and amicus format documents to create 1 large
document.

That value is returned by
Selection.Information(wdFirstCharacterColumnNumber)
