Access does not support the display of the tab character in text boxes, so
you would need to fudge it by trapping the tab character (e.g. KeyDown event
of text box), and replacing it with say 4 spaces.

This example might help:

That's why I referred you to the article that inserts the additional
characters.

Which line has the compile error?

Did you copy the InsertAtCursor() function into a standard module?
