Problem

Symptoms: When a customer sorts a secondary merge file containing information separated with tabs by the second word, the sort does not work. Solutions: This problem was corrected in the 05/31/91 release. To work around the problem the user can replace each Tab with three spaces, then perform the sort, then replace the three spaces with a Tab. Another workaround would be to place a space before each Tab (search for a Tab and replace it with a space, Tab).
