tabbing in C# resource file

Question

How do i add a TAB (\t) to a string resource ?

"\tText" doesn't work

Answer 1

You have to explicitly add the tab in. The easiest way of doing this is probably to type out your string in notepad (with the tab explicitly set in place rather then using an escape character) and copy and paste the text into the resource editor.

You will have a similar problem with newlines, the easiest way of adding them in is to - again - add newlines in explicitly by using the shift-enter key combination.
