Hi

I have a document with fields of data, I wish to use the
insert a table option which will place a table onto the
page with the numbers in each field. I have been partly
successful, but have a problem with Minus signs;

the fields contain the following data.

0.14 30.80 80.94 -50.14 Pass 21.68 67.95 -46.27 Pass Yes

The gap between each number is a tab.
now the end result when I apply the table insert is

0.14 30.80 80.94|-50.14 Pass 21.68 67.95| -46.27 Pass Yes
so instead of having Ten Column table I obtain a three
column table, it has something to do with the minus signs
but I do not know what

any Help please.

Tks

Nick

And for those who wonder how, it is necessary to select tabs as the
separator in the Convert text to table dialog.
