How to see the 09 tab character not 20 space character in tab delimited files

Problem:

When examining a data record during program animation -  sees X"2020202020" instead of X"09".

This happens with Net Express 3.1 base version.

Resolution:

In all versions of Net Express the answer is to use the EXTFH.CFG file with the following options:

[XFH-DEFAULT]

EXPANDTAB=OFF

and set the environment variable EXTFH to:

EXTFH=X:\\directoryname\\extfh.cfg
